Just Words

Just Words

A Poem by gabiaimee
"

Books are just sentences, which are just words, which are just letters....

"
Sometimes my mind wanders 
and it gets lost
in the inked paper woods.
I live in literary worlds
without thought or distraction
much longer than I should. 

My first love was fiction
bound in the confines
of a sturdy spine.
They're just words. 
It's just letters. 
If you read between the lines.

I can actually relate to this poem on a spiritual level. I love the.. the whole thing actually. It told us what (I think) pretty much everyone in this site is thinking. I like the last three lines especially because it gave it a double meaning; that the words in our books really are just markings on a page, or that there is something deeper than them just being words and letters because you don't just take them in as individuals, you read the story they tell you. Great work! I really love this one. :)

My first love was fiction

So I forget it.
I feel that I am travelling. Nice to have penned it. Great one dear.

Reading is an escape and the reader can see and be in different places, people, etc. Well written.

I loved non-fiction first. History of world stole my heart. Just words. There keep us thinking and seeking new places to overcome and understand. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
