Books
Take me away, show me a place that's fit for a queen and then maybe ill stay. Lost in
your world, I can feel the pages turning am I under oath because I want you to know that
I would never lie to you. just let me in and I will feel safe locked up in your numbers
constantly rising. Maybe I could pretend and never have to love again if only you would
let the pleasure stay then maybe I would ignore boys forever. No hurting no pain just the
smooth feeling of other people's writing. My secret tree house, my own party and i'm
excited I don't need real friends. When i'm around you it's just you and me making magic.
I never have to feel afraid, I feel what you feel. I just let my memories fade. It's when
I reach the end and shut the book that I finally realize that i'm lonely. I'd do anything
to get the key back into your world. A tear drops down as I say goodbye like " graduation
day" another friend that I have to put on a shelf and never visit again. If we shall meet
in another life time I'll laugh, ill smile, and I will fall in love once again with the
memories of the pages and creases I left in them.
