Her heart was an open book with beautiful pages and detailed lettering. She wanted people to read her story in hopes that it would make them write their own. Instead, every person who came across the pages of her heart ripped out their favorite story and took it with them. They folded back pages and bent up corners.

&ldquo;If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn&#039;t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn&#039;t be. And what it wouldn&#039;t be, it would. You see?&rdquo; - Mad Hatter
