Madeline Lanzi

Drowning in a pit of darkness. All alone, nowhere to call home. She sits and talks to herself about how she could have been better. What could she have done differently? He will never tell her why he did it, which will cause her to overthink every little thing she ever did. The thoughts are getting to her head. A second goes by. Then a minute. And then an hour. She gains her strength back. She opens the shades to her room to let the bright yellow rays of light fill her room with comfort. She calls up her friends. “I need to go out… Girls night?” Forgetting about the shit he put her through, she danced as if she was an elegant swan gliding through a crystal clear lake. That night with her girls made her realize that she will always have a place to call home.
