Dangerous Voices

Errik has been a prisoner--and alone--for a long, long time. He lives for the moment each day when the window of his dungeon cell shines a bit of light onto his bearded face.
But everything changes when he gets a new neighbor--a young girl with a voice as beautiful as the springrise.
They both know the rules: No singing. No speaking. Voices are dangerous. But they can't help themselves. And soon enough, Errik begins to remember himself, why he's here in this dark place, and why his captors will stop at nothing to ensure his silence.

This was a nice short story. It only took me about 20 minutes to read but i thought it sent a nice message. The message might be different depending on the person but the message I got was to not lose yourself and who you are by letting people silence you or bring you down. i downloaded it one day on one of my free ebook sites. Its definitely worth the 20 minutes to sit down and read it. Usually short stories just leave me wishing there would be more books or at least a full length novel but this one definitely did just fine with the one short story. :-)
