vellichor (n.) the strange wistfulness of used bookshops
greeted by the
rain-speckled windows
and soft candlelight glow
the dusty vanilla
yellowed pages
with curled corners
and faded print
whisper
someone else
thumbed through these pages
hugged these words to their chest
was enchanted with the same story
the beauty of a used book
should not go unappreciated
