Reader

I have fallen in love,

I have cried,

I have traveled to the far-off lands,

Lands with magic,

Lands of fairies,

And lands of lost heroes.

I am a dreamer who found her home in books.

I am a loner who found herself in books.

I still remember, the very first day, I opened a book.

I was sitting alone while I saw my friends laughing loudly,

Playing, celebrating.

I opened the book, pretended to be lost in its world.

Better be called a bookworm than a loner.

I have made memories,

Loving memories scented with the smell of books.

I have made friends,

With words,

With emotions,

With souls, 

Naked souls with no face or body.

I am not a loner anymore,

I am a reader.

I don’t pretend anymore,

I dream,

I am a dreamer.

I am a reader.
