and began a new life.

The pages cut your fingers
and the words cut your heart,
like the author had a knife,
and was tearing your soul apart.
You laughed with the characters,
and with them you cried,
you fell in love with them, too,
but with them you died,
and when the book reached it's end,
your broken heart couldn't heal,
