The Author and the Reader

The clack of keys
The crack of joints
Steam from a warm cup of tea
The author sits at her desk
A smile as she closes the laptop
She knows this will hurt them

A page flip
A tiny gasp
Glow from the moon outside
The reader sits on her bed
A tear as she closes the book
Oh how she hurts now

The author has set a trap
And the reader fell right into it
