For as long as I’ve been writing, I’ve
been searching for the perfect sentence. A
collective of words that transcends beyond
meaning. An unnatural marriage of euphoria
and despair. Something so nostalgic and yet
impossible to remember. I haven’t found my
whale just yet. Maybe I’m not ready to pen
it, then again maybe it doesn’t exist.
Eyes + Words 
Sounds more like a state of mind you’re trying to achieve, and not something concrete that you can touch…

Possibly within out of doubt,
you’ve pen that sentence already?

This is awesome! Our writer’s dilemma, can we find that perfect sentence? Maybe. But then would we quit writing? So beautifully stated, very thought provoking. 🙂

Thanks Alexis 🙂
I don’t think I would quit, I’d try to follow it up with the perfect continuation.

Hmmm a perfect sentence ….maybe there are no words …maybe those moments of ‘perfection’ or ‘bliss’ are only to be found in silence:)

I’d say you’re very close to achieving your goal, if not already there. This was nice and soul touching!

We seek common grammar! I’m fascinated with phrases of words, sentenced together into a transcendent meaning. I feel like I’m just scratching the surface of something much larger, much greater. Still, it’s nice just to write and let my sub-conscious speak for but a moment.
