You should not judge me by my cover, Because I'm an open book You won't be able to read me in one sitting, Or see me in a single look The pages torn around the edges Words are worn from weathered eyes But newer chapters ever changing Are living life within these lines Breathing There are parts that can be painful, Those paragraphs are most important This current section could seem stressful, I carry with me no regret It may be strange to start in the middle, There's no better time than now I'll fill You in on sections passed, what you've missed, true and honest Just ask and I will tell You anything You wish to know So what do You say, care to read a good story? Or better yet, play a part in this plot for me, and I for You It's one that ebbs and flows, and never ends, and perhaps, You can be a character in Would You like to help me finish writing it?
