Here's a peak

[Highway23]

Well, it's more of just a very small excerpt of what I'm working on...


To give you a little background...the guy is in a coma...that's it for now


---I immediately recognize the open sound. R.E.M, “Sweetness

follows.” It’s an amazing song. It’s a sad song. Yet it isn’t

making me sad. Instead I focus on the lyrics and the sweet

soothing voice of Michael Stipe. “Readying to bury to your father

and your mother, what did you think when you lost another, I

used to wonder why did you bother, distance from one, one to

the other…sweetness follows…” I think about the song. I think

about the lyrics and what they mean to me now rather than what

they did when I had first heard the song.


It is a song of hope; a hymn to the audacities of life, how

anything can happen to you whether you have chosen it or not.

This song is sinking into my being. Is this song about me? Will

sweetness follow this empty void that I have been living in? Will

I ever wake up to realize the sweetness? I am enthralled by


how this song is giving me hope, hope I haven’t had in my mind

before for this very minute. I wonder if my mom had realized this

as well. Did she think this song would give me hope? She must

have, I want to thank her, I wish that I could hit replay.

thanks, it's not much, but I'm working on it.

I have no idea what it is going to become...short story, novel, or...something

But it's been fun, and my mind has really been opening to new thoughts and expressions that I have always wnated to write down...this time I think I got it

thanks for reading :)
