The Libarary

                                                         have not
                                                       became ice.
                                                        I do exist
                                                            now,
                                                          Though
                                                         some of 
                                                       my choices
                                                     do not let me
                                                           live...
                                                             as
                                                           I was,
                                                       life before.
                                                    I smell the rose,
                                                            but
                                                              I 
                                                          do not
                                                      touch, for I
                                               know, the thorns hurt
                                                             so.
                                                              I
                                                         build my
                                                        walls to try
                                                      to protect, for
                                                            fear
                                                             of
                                                          my life
                                                        consuming
                                                     you. live life for
                                                             now.
                                                              My
                                                           book is
                                                       closing. Each
                                                   book builds a part
                                                     to the Libarary.
                                                            Bye!
