was reading late, The room was quiet. Rain tapped the window Like it knew my name. The pages felt warm, The words felt kind. I meant to stop, But I didn’t mind. My eyes got heavy, The lines went slow. The story blurred, And I let it go. I don’t know when I closed my eyes, But I didn’t leave I stayed inside. If you wake me, Please be kind. I’m still resting In that book of mine.

The Book I Fell Asleep Inside
was reading late, The room was quiet. Rain tapped the window Like it knew my name. The pages felt warm, The words felt kind. I meant to stop, But I didn’t mind. My eyes got heavy, The lines went slow. The story blurred, And I let it go. I don’t know when I closed my eyes, But I didn’t leave I stayed inside. If you wake me, Please be kind. I’m still resting In that book of mine.
