A/N: I decided to change up the quote idea a little. A poem is kind of a really long, eloquent quote to me, so I'm just going to do an ode instead of a shorter quote for this quote. Hope that's acceptable!530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvPF8acrwqK

"A Reader's Ode"

A spiderweb of black ink,

Ensnared between pages,

Hands reaching through,

Pulled into an embrace.

Like Alice down a rabbit hole,

Drifting through curious and archaic language,

As the paper flutters like feathers,

Brushing hands with gentle caresses.530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgcitdA4X8

The smell of paper, leather, ink,

The smell of this body,

Worn skin and spine display love and age,

Unjudged by outer appearance,

Bones etched with markings,

A heart made up of words,

The blood a jet black stamp,

Without the ability to speak,

These journeys can still be told,

Every heartbeat creating rhythmic fables.530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDoRm1HyEF

Whenever set aside parts of a soul linger,

Clinging to an illusion of fantasy,

Caught up in a whirlwind of words,

Unable to accept that it doesn’t last forever,

Paper on paper whispers songs of legend and lore,530Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi9TZXpxAc

Forever lost in a never-ending labyrinth of scripture.
