My Beloved Book
You are a book
Filled with the most marvelous story
As I flip through every page
Every word uttered leaves me in awe
I underline my favorite things about you
In fact, the whole book's marked
I fold every page's corner
Constantly and endlessly re-reading them
I would always put you beside me as I sleep
Keep you close to my heart
And let you fill the empty spaces in my mind
As I dream about you every night
I would never put you on a bookshelf
For putting you there means forgetting
And I would never want to forget
A book so amazing and real as you
I would take you anywhere with me
Because you would make me happy
With the way you choose your words so naturally
And how sweetly you let them flow through paper
I would read you again and again
For I know I would never get tired
Cause you are the one and only best book I've got
And I am lucky I finally found the right book for me
