Bookstore Love
If I told you I loved you would it come from a novel?
Creating fantasy on a page of unrealistic thoughts and romance.
Sometimes mere words add no reflection to what sleeps inside...
And to articulate such a memory of love in the middle of uncivilized war I would every day fight tooth and nail for your smile.
But hopeful words do not make you inspiration instead they show your immaturity.
Love isn't created in a bookstore....
Yet every page is more soothing then the most loveliest of lullabies.
Almost like a melody connected to the heart strings of mankind back before he knew of sin.
So pure..
Wish you could read this with me then maybe you wouldn't think my affection for you was silly...
But then again I found you between the lines of society.
And not once have you turned to my page.
