They said why are you so ingrossed in all of this ,
They asked how does it feel ,
They called me a freak ,

How do I tell them it's my escape.

It may be just some words for them but for me
it's like
living a thousand life ,
seeing every side .

How do I tell them the one they call
"BOOKS" with so much expression.

Is the only place I run to ,
when I am low on energy,
when I am sad,
when I want comfort .

I turn through the pages ,
the smell of old books,
as I read through them ,
my mind in a completely different mood .

I would never want to be parted from them ,
call it boring all you like ,
my life doesn't depend on others
wishes in the end .
