Book Worm

Let me open you and inhale your smell Move my fingers through your pages Bury neck in your spine As an avid reader does Run my eyes filled with concentration Upon the story that's written Read between your lines Trace out meanings hidden within poems Scribbled by poets unknown known to me Give a look at the marks That's favourite of someone anonymous Or couldn't decipher your mute words Unfold corners done at floated away eons Who gazed you repeatedly Across the ink dripped to words there Unlock the treasure you have hidden within As I turn your pages synchronizingly You'll then shower rain of knowledge upon me Reading you as my favourite book And try to clear mist of my thoughts Through your perception of topics And caress your dog-eared worn out pages Hold with utmost respect Near my heart Till sleep takes me in her lap Lost and twined in each others arm The world wonders who holds whom I take up this voyage each day A love story that I won't let ever end 13/03/2019
