In The Mist of Time

Cruising down the quiet country lanes with a bouquet of roses in hand; his life was never the same as he raced into the blinding headlights.

Beatrice.

Bia.

His childhood love; an affair that could never be.

Waiting was painful. Rejection hurts more. Liam thought he was better off chasing his dreams.

In a desperate attempt to mend his broken heart, moving to New York seemed like the perfect solution for new beginnings. He would drown himself in work while launching his career as a writer. And who better to get lost with in the city’s madness than his fun-loving childhood buddy, Shane? Together, they would conquer the city and live great lives without regrets or apologies.

Little did Liam realize what he actually got himself into.

If only I knew better, if I was braver, and if only she said, “yes.”

If only reality unfolded as the dainty poem tucked into the breast pocket of his jacket; a precious memory, now lost in the mist of time.
