The Key

I am a key. Old and silver, rusted and ornate. This is my story. My mistress always held me on her person. I belong to an old cabinet where she kept her prized possessions. Her only baby’s hair. Her mother’s pearl necklace. Her husband’s best cufflinks. She had a hard life. Her baby died from cholera at the age of 3. Her husband was killed fighting to set people free, and her mother lived on only in memory.1

    Ohh.....

    This is very good. It is mysterious, and very well written for such a short piece. I hope you are going to write a little more about this, maybe make a full story, as I would love to read more!

    It had lovely imagery, and it was brilliant, well done!

    intriguing

    I like this. Are you going to continue it? There is a lot of room for expansion with this one as well. Bravo, and keep up the good work!
