Favorite Quote:
"There is no friend as loyal as a book." - Ernest Hemingway


Her voice has been taken away
by the death of a lonely friend.
She speaks to no one,
silence embraces the air around her.
The words no longer remain,
nestled in the jail of her stomach
waiting to make an escape.
She fears if her lips part,
The screaming will never stop.
