A nook meant for reading
getting lost in a book
Chapter after chapter
each plot twist sets the hook
.
Desolate, in the corner
lonesome, so it seems
A lamp, a chair, a table
makes for an empty scene
.
Forlorn, and dejected
it whispers out my name
“Come, and have a seat”
my demons want to play
.
Before me, on the table
a book I’ve never seen
Its pages lie in nudity
I respond, like a fiend
.
A pen between my fingers
a heart, ready to pour
Spilled upon the pages
my ongoing, inner war
©️Unapologetically Me
Unapologetic
