By Cassa Bassa and Bree Leto
An exhausted heart,
asking no more for rain
A shameful shadow
deserving no reprieve from disdain
A drip,
running down from the heavens to my soul
A refreshment,
replenishing the drought within me
A book,
doing just that to rescue me
A story,
unfolding before my eyes
making my heart sing again
Secret Thoughts Within 
amazing, the last stanza, bree, love it

Very nice Bree and Cassa 🙂 Very interesting how the first two lines and the last two lines of each stanza diverge yet create a coherent flow 🙂 Good one!
