Alien Invasion

PHOTO PROMPT © David Stewart


f I had to go back in time and think about the moment in life that changed our lives forever it would be the day when the aliens made their appearance.

Before that we lived in harmony.  The world we inhabited was not perfect with the occasional wars and times of conflict but those were but small niggles in our history.

Your declaration of love for another was a relief in the end.

It explained the bursts of anger, disappearance over periods of time and rewriting of our history.

I prefer think that the aliens took over your body instead.

  6. Dear Subroto,

    Possession by aliens is more comforting than admitting the relationship is over. ;) Perhaps it's all for the best.

    Shalom,
