Excerpt from the book:

The room is small, dark and cold. The girl had no idea how she ended up there. Naked and scared, she goes to the fountain of liquid in the middle of the room for comfort--but is this liquid water or poison? Is it comfort or pain? Is there a way for her to escape the room, or is it some sort of punishment?

flickering above the shattered pieces of the fountain. She continued to stare as the flicker slowed down, the luminance seemed to fade. Perhaps staring for too long was vignetting her sight.

Every moment the light faded out, the girl screamed, wishing for it to come back, needing the sustenance of the liquid. She screamed out apologizing, screaming hateful words then back to apologizing and then for help itself. Alone. Again. But without the fountain. Without the hum behind the walls. No voice mocking her. Just her and darkness. Until the light faded and did not turn back on--until there was nothing.

Thanks

Thanks again for reading this story! I hope it was... dare I say "enjoyable"... moving to you. I don't want to give away the metaphor, but it is close to my heart what it is about. Feel free to share your interpretations and check out my other work if you feel so inclined.
