Brief Conceits will be moving off of Blogger onto a WordPress-powered site. The transition will happen later this week. The web address will remain the same, and if you are subscribed to the RSS that should remain the same as well. Thank you!

Live Your Own Life

"I can't," she pushed him away and turned on her heels, but could not seem to leave.

"Why not?" he asked. Things had been going so well up to this point.

"I just can't, okay?" she turned back and looked at him with a half-smile, her eyes holding back a cascade of tears. "We just can't be. It just wouldn't work."

He stared deep into her watery eyes, "How can you know before we even begin?" His voice slightly cracked as he said it.

"They won't let us," she whispered through sobs.

"Just for tonight, why not live your own life?"
