**Title: Echoes of Silence**

**Page 1**

In the shadows of our home, where love was meant to bloom,
A garden of despair, its petals steeped in gloom.
A girl with eyes so wide, reflecting all she sees,
Trapped in walls of silence, yearning to be free.

Her laughter, once a melody, now echoes in the past,
In a house of shattered dreams, where happiness can't last.
The sun outside, a distant glow, she watches from within,
A prisoner of circumstance, where hope wears thin.

Voices raised, but not in song, words like daggers, sharp and cruel,
In the space where dreams went wrong, her heart became a tool.
Father's anger, a raging storm, crashing through the night,
Mother's tears, a constant flow, in a home devoid of light.

She learned to walk on eggshells, to silence every plea,
Her innocence, a casualty of what should never be.
In the quiet of her room, she hides from all the pain,
Drawing pictures in the gloom, a child lost in the rain.

Each night she closes tired eyes, wishing for a different place,
A realm where joy and peace reside, where love's a warm embrace.
Her dreams, a sanctuary, where skies are always blue,
A world untainted by the cries that echo through and through.

But morning breaks the fragile spell, reality seeps in,
A cycle of torment and of dread, where nightmares once begin.
In her heart, a silent scream, a plea for something more,
A yearning for a life unseen, beyond the sorrow's door.

The mirror shows a face so young, yet eyes of ancient age,
Windows to a soul undone, trapped within a cage.
Her smile, a distant memory, her laughter, but a ghost,
Innocence stolen silently, pain, her constant host.

She pens her anguish on the walls, in ink of darkest hue,
Silent screams in every line, her heartache bleeding through.
Her story, etched in secrecy, within the shadows cast,
A chronicle of misery, of a girl fading fast.

Tears fall gently, like the rain, onto pages worn and frail,
Each droplet tells a tale of pain, a whispered, mournful wail.
She writes to mend a broken heart, to stitch the wounds unseen,
In every word, a healing start, in every line, a dream.

Her pen, a wand of magic, her ink, a soothing balm,
Transforming sorrow into strength, her chaos into calm.
Through verses dark and poignant, she finds a way to cope,
In every stanza, resilience, in every rhyme, a hope.

Memories like chains still bind, though time has passed her by,
Echoes of a tortured mind, reflected in her eye.
The ghosts of yesteryears remain, haunting every step,
In every joy, a hint of pain, in every laugh, regret.

Yet within the darkest night, a flicker starts to grow,
A candle's flame, so small and bright, begins to softly glow.
She dreams of fields with skies of blue, where laughter fills the air,
A place where wounds can heal anew, a world beyond despair.

Her words become her only friend, her lifeline in the storm,
In every letter, a means to mend, a way to feel reborn.
She writes of mornings bathed in light, of days untouched by fear,
A future where the wrongs are right, a life where love is near.

In every verse, a piece of soul, in every line, a prayer,
A longing for a life that's whole, for someone who will care.
Her book, a testament to pain, and to the strength she finds,
A record of the storms she's braved, and the peace she seeks in kind
