cause and effect.
Liz Emerson doesn't
understand any of it.
But I do.
I understand how we fall.
Where we fall. Why we fall.
I understand her sadness
and loneliness and silence,
her shattered heart.
It doesn't have to be
this way, does it?
It wasn't always
this way, was it?
Stay alive,
Liz Emerson,
stay alive.
Amy Zhang lives in Sheboygan, Wisconsin. Falling into Place is her first book.
