Today I've snipped out sentences from a story I had published several years ago. Sean's broken heart has made him vulnerable, but also freed him, and a magical creature has felt his pain and come to take him away.
~~~
The last embers of sunset had finally fled.
"Now what?" Sean whispered. He felt heavy-limbed, and earthen-bound, especially next to this near-ethereal creature of the sky.
"Now we fly," the strange man said. "And cherish each other's company until the end of our days. Which may never come."
