Hey, Taru! No knocking yourself about, now, you talented soul. :-) I enjoyed both your pieces. :-) "It's Lost" captures House's 'vibe.' It reminds me of the Blue Rodeo lyrics: "And if we're lost/Then we are lost together" in their song "Lost Together." Lyrics:

And "Empty" has a haunting quality. I think most folks who have gone through their 'teenage angst years' (or just general 'human angst' LOL) can relate. {{{{Taru}}}}
It's a pleasure to meet someone who enjoys both the Arts and Sciences, as I do, too. :-) As my 'profile' suggests, I'm interested in virtually *everything* and count particle physics, theoretical physics and cosmology among my 'hobbies.' LOL
Keep writing, and keep looking up at the stars... They're doing some mighty interesting things, up there. LOL
Hugs,
Sanlin :-)
