VINTAGE BOOKS

i don't think you would understand
the severity of how much i fell for you
like how all these vintage books
captivated my heart; umbrage heart-poured tragedies
opened my eyes; wandered the misty world
i've been blindly tracing
each time i flip its every pages,
felt like a broken glass of grief
i never want it to end,
but rather to turn broad
just like my wide affection to you
and at the very time,
i never thought you'd be
the last story i'll read over and over
i never knew that
the one i'd be willing to retell forever
was you.
