I knocked at the lonely book To open the doors to an adventure Between the labyrinth of words Taking me towards the untold story Unraveling the surprises, slowly Every turn I take brings me to a crossroad Words pulling me to different directions Engaging my mind in wordplay And I start interacting with the protagonists Delving deep into their minds To gauge the thoughts of the author Trying to bridge the gap between our thoughts Only to face a barrage of hypothesis Until I find myself at the exit of the maze The lonely book has managed to hold my attention Another journey waits till I decipher every word
