A cup of dark gloaming coffee
Between your fingers
In serenity, you recline on an armchair
Far away from populace and clatters.
Inside a world of your own
your reflections and sentiments are
on commotion and uproar.
You flip through the pages like you're skipping through doors.
Each door conceals a secret
Waiting to be told.
Getting attached to every character
When each one got a complexion,
They're protagonists of their own stories,
Not outsiders you pass by as you walk
Wondering what's on their minds.
Every chapter holds a new life,
a new light.
A light that captures all your senses
and flows through your thoughts.
It could appear materialistic
—mere ink and paper—
But underneath it all
Are galaxies of sensitivities
That speak to a like-mind.
That is the feeling of
Giving in to the power
of a good book.
Greetings from Carolina! I’m bored to death at
work so I decided to browse your website on my iphone during lunch break.
I really like the information you provide here and can’t wait
to take a look when I get home. I’m amazed at how
fast your blog loaded on my mobile .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G ..
Anyhow, great site!
