She is the book left on the highest shelf wanting to be read
Page after page, her words dance across each line
Her story could set you free but only if you dare
Few choose to read and those who dare are never able to finish her
She longs for fingers to turn her pages
Eyes to graze each line
Lips to speak her words
But there she sits slowly suffocating under every speck of dust
still wanting to be read
