A selection of the Lost drabbles that I have written. They're all unconnected.

Rating: PG
Word Count: 98
A/N: Written for the wordschallenge prompt, 'music'.
It was easier to focus on his guitar than anything else.
Easier to follow a melody, chase a song, pluck the right notes and hope for the best than think about what was happening right now: the plane crash, the island, the withdrawal, Claire…
None of it mattered when he picked up this frail instrument. The world faded away to this – to music.
He might've lost civilisation and he might've lost his drugs, but he still had one precious little thing left: his talent.
That was one thing that no one was allowed to take away from him.
