Introverted Girl

Since she felt the urge to smile, she followed the primary rule of her existence and did not do it.

Echoes

A touch upon her soul
It withdraws with chilling conviction
but its warm imprint remains
A defiant presence in her heart
Bewildering her logic
Thwarting her reason
A creation of her own making
Of her own heart
pulsing with echoes
of a voice that has long since
fallen silent
