By Chloe Maria Pyrsos I look for you through the stained glass window. I look to remember the moment you left. I reminisce in the before as much as I am alone in the after.  Our house has turned cold and far too big. I used to play bossanova and dance around it to fill space. Now, come winter, I cling to blankets like I did your jacket while the bookshelves collect dust. Nights cold as these remind me of the day you invited me in. I had been standing in the cold for hours. I

By Meenu B “Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes.” - Walt Whitman Contradicting emotions were what started my career in Medicine. At times brimming with moral rectitude, but at others appalled by the depravity of the human mind. But through it all, I have made some indelible memories that have forged my life. I will never forget the first time I entered the dissection hall and the pungent smell of formaldehyde. Nor the
