Favorite

When all else is wrong

A good book is unfailingly right.

I read

and I reread

and then I reread some more.

 

My favorite book will never let me down,

while my favorite people may.

I calmly read through the conflict;

I know everything will resolve.

 

In life, it's less obvious.

The turmoil seems neverending,

Some days I can't seem to lift my head up.

 

On these days,

simply curl up and read.

Let yourself calm down.

Remember why your favorite book is your favorite

and remember why your favorite people are your favorite.
