I open them,
read the first few pages.
Flying off to places,
way beyond my reaches.
About wizards and witches,
about brave battle boys,
About the young little girl,
Happily playing her toys.
If someone calls out,
I am sure I wouldn't hear.
For I am far too lost,
In the book, I'm not here.
People often ask,
about my emotional investment,
In lives of people,
who have no existence.
It is my escape,
a rendezvous I call it.
Just that it include,
just the book and I.
You'd never ask,
if you ever read a good book.
And trust me, when you do
You'll find yourself shook.
By the peace it brings,
and the interest you took.
