"A Book"

A book to read.
That's what I need.
A great big book about you me.
We were never together you see.
As far apart as two people could be.
"What could bring them together" they all ask?
I can assure you it was no small task.
Imagine climbing a 100 foot wall.
Everyone's telling you you're gonna fall.
That was a risk I had to take.
A daring choice I had to make.
Nothing else enraptured my heart.
While at the same time nearly tearing it apart.
You made me angry.
You made me sad.
And very nearly drove me mad.
But did I turn back?
No, no, no.
Forward was the way I chose to go.
But the books not yet finished.
But that doesn't cause the story so far to be diminished.
So I keep pressing on.
And when I pick up the pen from the paper I hope to see.
Your smiling face staring back at me.
