She stands there still. It's been hours, days, months, years...eternity... Just her. Alone. Not alone. Her...and the silence. The unbearable, impenetrable silence. She calls out. At first just a hesitant whisper...and then a little louder. Loud... but not enough to shatter the silence. Her questions hang heavy in the air...unanswered. "Speak to me... give me an answer....", she cries, "Are you even listening?" No response. Again the silence. She asks again...yelling now... but the silence yells back... louder. Emptiness...darkness and silence. Deafening silence broken only by her anguished sobs.
Silence... sobs... silence... emptiness... silence... darkness... silence... She covers her ears. She falls to the floor. And the silence is quiet once more.
About Me
- Aadi
- "I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty, or smart, or young. They're still princesses. All of us."
