Imagine a world, kept inside a book

Open the pages, close your eyes, don’t look

Picture the verdant grasses and trees

Breathe in the subtle, wisps of the breeze

Watch as the birds fly quietly by

Grab all the moonbeams, out of the sky

Dangle your legs, in the lake near a castle

Forget about life, and all of its hassles

Reach up and catch the clouds in your hands

Dream yourself away, to those faraway lands

Though light filters in from far up above

A candle illuminates, her unending love

For buried deep within these pages, bound

A story is told of a love, quite profound

Each word is penned in invisible ink

Into each line, her feelings would sink

These books held her secrets, no one could see

Her life in the parchment, a true mystery

 

He opened the books, left here, all alone

The pages were empty, no words was he shown

Holding them nearer, to the candle’s bright flame

He knew there was something, it whispered his name

Closer, he brought the blank pages toward light

No words did appear, yet he felt something, slight

She whispered her love, but he caught not a word

So she stayed a closed book, spoken but unheard

Verses sing, sweet poetry

Penned in perfect symmetry

Hearts that spill of love divine

Feelings merged and intertwined

Unspoken words upon a page

Memories of a restless age

Written down for mortal self

Left in pages on a shelf

More than mere simplicity

The lyrics of our symphony
