Favorite Quote:
"Tears disappear into the air because they hate the fact that they weigh down the people they come from."


It all started with a
word.
The first of so many, soon to be
Heard.
A sigh, a breath, a mere cry
An infant word, naive to
goodbyes.
It came to save, to redeem, to cause the dawn
of expression of thoughts she once couldn't
put a name on.
It all started with a word
That foretold dreams of perceptions to come
The word of youth, infinity...
freedom.
