She found her diaries one afternoon.
Interest she would feel, one would presume.
But they were sheer horror for her, ones that bring doom
For they contained anecdotes she'd want to rid soon.

She need not read the contents, she lived them and survived.
She didn't even wonder if lost dreams were there to be revived.
Hurriedly she went to the backyard and let water, not fire, arrive
Between pages, and now, memories are drowned to not thrive.
