Within The Pages

Within the books lies my lover

Deep in those pages my feelings uncover

And i don’t mean to overwhelm you i tend to hover

Well i must get it from my mother

I stay close fearing you’ll leave me for another 

But if i cannot trust you i fear my heart may shudder 

So i write this for you my one and only lover
