I Am Poem

I am the book you don't read

I wonder how long i will stay together

I hear the tear from within

I see the words start to fade

I want my story to be made new

I am the book you don't read

 

I pretend I'm okay

I feel the warmth of fingertips

I touch the tears that wrinkle the page

I worry I won't last

I cry from the feeling of being broken

I am the book you don't read

 

I understand I'm not perfect

I say I'll hold on

I dream of the twists in my story

I try to change my ways

I hope everything will turn out okay

I am the book you don't read
