Final Peace


The timeless story of love lost. The endless story of how to live without love. The never ending tale of listening to the voice inside your head after your love leaves- the voice that berates you for what you have done, what you haven't done, the one that asks you what you are going to do. Perfection.

Johnathon has lost his wife to another man. He doesn't know how to cope. Always the question arises, "How the hell do I go on now without her?". The chilling answer is that he cannot. The voice inside his mind gives him ideas, suggestions and a way to end his suffering.Ironically after he has called himself a "weak, fool bastard" Johnathon finds the strength to find a way to live without her and at the same time he finds his peace. Perfection.

This work is powerfully written, with sharp clear images and a character that is true to the end. You can feel his pain, visualize all his suffering and the surroundings. You can see his love and her new man and the scene with the three of them together as if it were on the daily news. There is not a question left unanswered in this story. Sad as this work is, it is whole and complete. Perfection.

This story is a fabulous read and deserves the Highly Recommended Award!
