The Long Goodbye-
The platform shakes as an overnight express blasts through the awakening city suburbs creating its own volcanic firework display as it heads toward some distant destination. A well dressed couple are kissing and are too engrossed in their own emotional torture of the moment, painfully aware that in only a few minutes they will be torn apart.
Will she be going back to her husband? Her lover? Her parents?
Her train is approaching and neither wants the moment to end, like two desperate survivors clinging on to a ledge by their finger tips, they know the inevitable but they can’t let go, the dogs are starting to get inpatient, the sound of the approaching train is getting louder as the brakes are applied. -
Could this be their very last kiss?, as the war is just around the corner...
