Letting

It all go as I dive into this book

reading about things I didn’t know.

Losing myself in a world that is more than me

More than the problems that bother me outside my home.

The words that are so powerful you can feel the emotions behind them

and almost see the scene of the story play out in front of your eyes.

As if you are in that moment feeling their pain and feeling their joy.

You are learning what they learn and building up your strength when they thought the weakness would be too strong for them to overcome.

And in that moment I am lost but a good lost

one that leaves me feeling at peace.
