i want to skip chapters,
but that's not how books work.

so instead i meet every character,
read every word even the ones that hurt,
i finish pages i don't want to end,
constantly re reading them along the way,
and grieving when the good character's betray.

most chapters make me cry for hours,
some even make me cry for days,
i catch myself constantly reminding myself it's fine,
because i know i can't just close this book and put it down anyways.
