A Good Book

My mind refreshes memories of tales, reminding me that my imagination is
only as real as I allow it to be.  
A way to kilter my brain.
All varieties of books flourish in my mind.
Embellished stories of fiction or non-fiction.
Is it possible for a character to encore another's charms?
Or does my heart harden, turning black as the deepest ocean?

The hardening of my heart depends solely upon its characters.
Tales of love, mystery, pain, and time travel.
Stories I will continue to read over and over again.
For my mind craves each new adventure.
A way to leave my own world behind and live the life of another person.

Soaking their world into my brain making it more real to me than
reading the book. "I LOVE TO READ!!" screams my heart and mind.
Living the life of another human and to be so totally encompassed into their
world, I forget about the reality of mine.
My escape is all too clear.

Adventures of piracy, traveling back in time to find "real" love.
Seeing the world through the eyes of the author. Enjoying the plot of
their tales. What a rush!!  Read, read on!!  Live a life you can only have
in a good book!!
