Based on the songs and lyrical beauty of Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band.
The story of 'Thunder Road' told from the perspective of Mary- the young woman whose presence is heavily felt in many of Bruce's songs. We're always left wondering who she may be, and with all the stories we've heard, it's hard to think of her as anything more than a 'mystery woman.' However, there must more to Mary than this if Bruce had so much to say about her. If she's real or if she's just a fantasy, either way, he truly loved her and from this love came music that changed the lives of thousands of people.
I know that Bruce's music has changed my life and I guess with this piece I just wanted to thank him for that.
Enjoy xx

Why don't you believe?" I ask whilst clenching the cross necklace that laid around my neck. "God has the ability to heal the world so if he exists why doesn't he? Why does he let innocent people suffer just to spite the ones doing wrong? Why would he leave two young boys motherless and then parentless? Why does character building mean going through shit?" Holden's voice cracks and I see his lips quiver, he looks away avoiding my gaze. In that moment I knew he needed comforting and sometimes that doesn't mean words, so I laid my head on his shoulder and took his hand in mine letting him know if all else goes wrong, I'll always be there for him. __________________________________ Addison Mills just had her life turned upside down, from the death of her mother to leaving the only home she's ever known and Micah, the man she loved.

Then he looks back to me and growls again and runs his hand across my neck before pressing down slightly and leaning in closer to me,"I know you aren't ready for this, I understand that. I told you I'm going to wait for you and still even then you are mine. And I'll do everything in my power to protect you and that also means me claiming you," he pauses and gives my neck butterfly kisses making me let out a moan and nod, "the men here are mean, rough and ruthless and will do anything to get a girl they want.
