    So, I was feeling a little down and decided I needed to read one of your stories. I simply picked the first one becayse I had no energy to look around.

    But I read through this and it really struck me. There so much meaning in it, even if there aren't a million words. But I think that's a good thing.

    I completely adored this. Thank you.

    I have to say, the last lines of this were absolutely stunning. The whole work was powerful from the start, but it definitely ended at it's peak, with a bang, etc. (Really, I didn't want to use a cliche in this comment, but it's the only thing that my mind could come up with.)

    It's not often that I find a drabble that I like; this was one that I love. It was intriguing, moving and never boring. Basically, it's like it was a book I couldn't put down until I'd finished it.

    This will be one of few works that I'll go back and read over and over again. Very well done, and incredibly well written as usual.

    Like Melly Belly said, the line that she quoted, that was so so so powerful. It felt kind of like a punch in the guts.

    The desperation I felt from this was heartbreaking.

    Words won't come out. I suck at complimenting. But oh well, I love it. And I agree with emaciated idol and Melly Belly. Ngee =D

    It's going to be okay if you'll just stop listening to the voices in your head and realize I've been talking nonstop for the past ten minutes and you haven't heard a single. Fucking. Word.

    That may be the most powerful thing I've ever read. Also I read as if Brendon was talking to Ryan, is that correct (from your view)? I just felt like those were things Brendon needs to say to Ry. This was really amazing Dru.

    I never know how to give you good feedback because I can't. You're a phenomenal writer, and that drabble was equally magnificent. And I cried [again].
    Loved it. :-]

    New drabble.
    Written in wordspill fashion, basically, without whiting out the words.
    Written as Ryden, can be read as original.
    Basically, I was rereading Ryan's old LJ entries and his poetry and then the first line came to my head and I just kept going.

    Happy reading!

    Thank you to each and every person who reviews.
