The Lady In the Library

With her back to the world Reality begins to fade Eyes wide like a small girl She slips into fantasy unafraid Without the chattering of others She listens to voices in every page She's amazed as her heart flutters Setting her up with each new stage Yet I wonder where she is In that whole other place Yet I would not disturb this Young beauty full of grace For this place is not for everday chatter It's for the worlds and adventures that matter
