Favorite Quote:
Cuts can heal, bruises fade away
But a heart is like a vase;
Once it is shattered, it can never be entirely whole again.

Books litter the narrow halls
Pens and pencils as common as the air surrounding them
Rushed sounds
Ring in hurrying ears.
Feet shuffling
Trying to pass by
Never able to escape
Chitchat and laughter
Accompany the raucous.
Bell is ringing
Harsh and warning
Noises dim
Crowds dissolve
Class has started.
