Bio
Once upon a time this writer was a reporter/photographer and columnist for a large weekly newspaper in New York City, worked at the Center for Publishing at N.Y.U., worked at Kirkus for one whirlwind semester and eventually was an editor at Scholastic. After two very eventful years on cable television in New York City, this writer was voted off the island. Today this writer is a student and soon-to-be published author (all fingers and toes are crossed) living in reduced circumstances. She is ever hopeful and even though her stomach may rumble from time to time, she is usually somewhat reasonably well fed. Most importantly this writer is a recovering or former New Yorker, (recovering seems more apt), who is quite happily transplanted elsewhere. She blooms where she is planted. ************************ You can contact me at diaryofahopefulstarvingstudent@ gmail.com

I See the Light

Rate: 1 Flag

All at once. Everything looks different. Now that Paolo sees Hope. And it's like the fog is lifted.

At last he sees the light.

Hope's face upturned. Looking right at Paolo.

All that time. Never even knowing. Just how blind he'd been. Chasing Joy. Who never wanted to be caught. And never was. At least not before. And not by Paolo.

All those days chasing down a daydream. All those years living in a blur with Joy. All that time never truly seeing. Seeing Joy as she really is. Not as Paolo wanted her to be. With him.

But on her own. Different.

All that time never truly seeing things as they were.

But now. Being here. With Hope. It's all so clear.

And she's warm. And real. And bright.

And all at once everything looks different.

Now that he's seen Hope.

As if for the first time.

And Paolo's world has suddenly shifted.
