A Writer's Ruminations

"The suffering touched me too early,
I have burned myself out,
I am the bright ash without desire.
Now, only the silence endures dearly,
When I am still standing in the fire."

— Grażyna Chrostowska, written in Ravensbrück 13th April 1942 translated by Jarek Gajewski (via ophelia sings)
