Books

I never knew
That something with torn creamy white pages
And a faded sapphire blue cover
Could have such a big impact
And make me see a bigger, brighter picture.

I never knew that books
Could offer such a release
And act as a form of escapism

I never knew that between covers
Is a different world
Full of captivating characters
And behind the black ink
Is a deeper story

I never knew how much
One story could mean
And how much it could inspire me
To think
And dream
