"There is no greater agony than an untold story within you" - Maya Angelou


White. Boundless whiteness. The world

has never seemed so clear. Crusted corners

soak up dust, seethe and roil at your touch. 

Click. Click. The pen’s ink sloshes within, 

crimson blood turned charcoal, flows 

from your veins into the ballpoint—wait. 

Pause. Reflect, before you press your mark 

onto the perfect space. Listen close, and eventually 

you’ll hear it whisper, yes.
