Yay thanks!
I didn’t really have a metaphor in mind when I wrote it
In my opinion, there’s almost always a purpose or something you want to tell the world, and it’s sad when that message doesn’t reach your audience, don’t you think?. The thing is, if you write a story without a metaphor or a meaning in mind, then your story can mean just about anything. You’d be impressed by how many ways a reader can interpret a story! And misinterpretation is risky, so is worth spending a bit of time on that. That’s my advice. ^^
