Naces, creces, amas, te rompen, aprendes y no mueres hasta que alguien deja de quererte. Estos poemas son la historia de Ella, la que fue callada porque sus gritos resonaban demasiado alto.

Sola, fue capaz de levantarse, de mirar a la cara a su pasado y decirle: «No me has vencido, soy indestructible». Ahora que ya bailas, el mundo entero va a quedarse a tus pies y donde antes había silencio ahora habrá música. La tuya. Atrévete a escucharla.
