Hello! I was going through the Twine Poetry Jam entries again, wish I could check this piece out again but I respect that you've taken it down. I hope all is well. 

Thank you! I've actually been thinking about this reply all week. I'm really an amateur at Twine to be honest and I wasn't really confident about my abilities as an IF game designer or a poet. But it looks like what I wrote had some kind of impact on you. I'm glad I risked being a little vulnerable. 

I don't think I can capture the nuance of my last relationship and its dissolution in under 300 words. But I could only think of the night I returned to our old apartment alone, with a couple weeks left on the lease. How dark it was, since nearly all the lightbulbs were out. The stale, almost rancid air. 

Maybe there'll be another one of these. Thanks for helping me consider it. 

Getting to that final word is very powerful. Thank you for making this.
