Summary/Abstract: The present paper emphasizes the therapeutic role of diarism and liberation from cloistering by creating wings of words (initially stifled by reasons of ontological order, but so pregnant as soul life through the prism of the inner flight it projects in the soul of the person condemned to captivity). Lena Constante's "silent escape" is another type of diary, written later, after the experience of detention ended, but capturing the experiences from the prison with the same acuity as if she had recorded them at the time of the experience. Recovered through anamnesis, the diarist's confessions are intended to facilitate the inner flight with the aim of finding the harbor of light inside her being troubled by injustices and sufferings. Finding the inner resources necessary to detach from self and the body subject to despair, hunger, cold and fear, the diarist becomes a spaceless and timeless living spirit, destined only for eternity. Her diary becomes a catalyst for the healing of wounds that have hurt and lasted for too long.
