You Are My Sunshine [poetry]

🍃

i am a novel.
my strong exterior hides the pages inside,
which are threaded together by memory.

when i reach a certain chapter
i'm drowned in distress
but for my own sake,
i must keep reading.

as of now,
the story is not getting any more
cheerful, but i tell myself
that i must keep reading.

i'm starting to lose hope as the story gets worse,
the plot has twisted
this is not what i expected.
but i have to keep reading.

as i reach a new chapter
my character grows,
i learn something new.

dear reader,
one bad chapter doesn't end your story.
