Description

A one-shot about a man forced to live for eternity and his struggles along the way. Perhaps it's crap, but I had fun writing, so whatever.

    An nteresing read about how one takes things for granted in life and how you should learn to appreciate it, it had a real confusing ending as it did not resolve some of the planted questions, but it was a good read, pretty short too so i recommend it. Thanks

    Not going to go into much detail.
    The story is so short that there's not much of a reason not to read it. A few minutes of your time short. And it's a good, thoughtful short story. I recommend this to anyone who finds it.
    Thanks AstralTempest for the story!

    This is a short story, bleak and sad in many ways, but it is easier to read it then go into great detail about its plot. My main issue is that the immortal dreamer is well, not shown to have done much of anything at all, it is more like the immortal wallflower in the end. The ending itself doesn't answer much and it just kind of leaves you hanging.

    This was a strange one for me to rate. I really liked it even though I think it may not be quite as good as I think it is. I don't know, like I said, this one is strange for me.
    I really like 1st person stream-of-consciousness style of narrative, always have. So that was a major plus for this story.
    And although I was underwhelmed by the direction that the story ultimately took, the first several sentences/paragraphs were absolutely fantastic.
    It would be interesting to see this extended and fleshed out.
    Ultimately I’d say it wasn’t my favorite, but it also wasn’t a waste of time to read.
