"Don't stop when you're tired, stop when you're done."


Fresh prints
Sitting out to dry
Perfectly pristine bindings
Lining the shelves
Finally purchased
Tales being read for the first time
Stories coming to life
Time goes on
They’re now in your hands
Waiting for you to
Inhale the aroma of aged literature
Being used for the millionth time,
Feel the tattered pages
Turning, over and over, forever, and
Watch the aged leather fracture
Where it is weak and brittle
These books will live forever
Finally falling into the hands of
Future generations

This is so relatable. I loved reading this. I also would like to ask, is it possible to follow people on here? I think the poetry you write is really good. I also think it is funny because we have the same name. But yeah, this poem was really good.
