One Life's Pilgrimage
ADOPTION by Sonja
Adopted by new loves long buried in books.
I'm safe from heartbreak and discouraging looks.
Lost to the allure of the world, communing for hours
devouring the poetry of souls long gone.
I rest, night after night, integrated and at home,
happily,
safely,
and securely alone.
