She fell asleep, in a book, in a faraway land
To dream about love, the touch of his hand
She surrounded herself, in clouds and stars
Curled up in the pages, of Jupiter and Mars
But, words became blurry, no longer told tales
The nightmare began, her dreams, assailed
Lost in the binding, she fought to awaken
Unsteady hands quaked, as if being shaken
Try as she may, she remained in the dream
Until the harrowing sound of a horrid scream
Brought her back to reality, groggy, but she
Was still caught in the pages, and ever will be
