Poetry

To find

the right book

is to find a suitable distraction that will not just take you away from where you are but make you become so much more.

To relate to the book and see if, for once, you’re not alone.

To know there are many books to look through.

So many times you like and discover their hidden gem and not feel too old or too three to claim the price,

To realize you can become a book and make others want and need you.

But only you can open up and find the truth of where you should be.

Don’t let others silence you from your outside appearance.

Because if you see beauty and strength, then believe it, own it.

You are the book, and you deserve to be picked and read and saved to put on a shelf of honor.
