I Want To Be The Book You Are Reading
I want to be the book you are reading
Lying flatly on your table like a spreadsheet
While you flip over through my pages like a voracious reader
Gazing down at me with an unequaled attention
Carefully grasping every bit of knowledge embedded in me.
I want to be the book you are reading
Offering you moments of delight occasionally
Serenading your mind
Fiddling with your emotions
Like a child to a toy
Rendering to you, the sour sweet experiences of the universe
Until you run out of capacity and shed incessant tears from a place of pain and relief
I want to be the book you are reading
Leaving you with an overwhelming intensity till you feel
awash and experience a mental coitus
Bringing you to a chasm between this world and the one beyond
I want to be the book you are reading
Encapsulated in gloss, dressed in your obsessions
The one that’s worth ditching the night’s sleep for
Indulging you to keep a vigil, burning the midnight candle
Whispering to you in silence , your calm in fury
I want to be the book you are reading
The sarcasm in your innuendos
The one you hold dear to your heart.
Have a wonderful week,
Dieko.
Xoxo.
