Walk into a Book

Imagine if

Every book came with a key

A key that opened a door

Into the book

Into the worlds

That are your happy place

Escape from reality

Taken to a new level

The joy found in between the pages

Right in front of you

No longer ink on paper

But a tangible place

Imagine the possibilities

All the things you could do

If you were in a world

With kings and queens

Talking trees

With golden leaves

The love you yearn for

The love that keeps you up at night

Because the enemies didn't become lovers

Until 1 am

A type of love

That you could have

Once you step through that door

A type of magic

That swirled around you

Once you step through that door

Kissing in the rain

Stitching broken hearts

Swimming deep into the sea

And then flying through the sky

Imagine if you

Could open a door

Stained in ink

That led you to

A place with more then just letters

Imagine if you

Could walk into a book

  • Type of Love

    Love is an open door?

    All you need is love?

    Love story?

    I know that feeling

    A bit differently

    Not quite what the song was intended for

    But I know of love

    That opens doors

    The love that is

  • Dear New York City

    Dear New York City,

    I don’t know what it is

    That makes me love it so much

    Maybe it’s the buildings

    That stretch towards the sky

    Forever reaching upwards

  • Field of Roses

    Have you ever seen dozens of roses?

    A field perhaps

    Covered in red beauty

    Have you ever tried walking through dozens of roses?

    Your fingertips perhaps

    Covered in red blood

    From afar roses are gorgeous
