Reading
You will find me
between the covers
of a book
wandering around
in worlds I’ve never lived in,
back in a tunnel
of time, you, Mr Darcy and me,
well, whomever I feel like being
You will find me on a page
lost between
black and white words
coloured by imagination
and the things I refuse
to feel while awake
will make me cry
while I read
deep into the nightAnd all the things
I wish to put down
will be held and
felt and somehow
through these ivory
pages that someone
else sweated and edited
and screamed of all that
they lovedI will find my own feelings
sent to paper
