        BOOKS                                                          EVERYTHING CHANGED


        What makes books so special to you?                            The happy soul I was yesterday,
        They are not just ink on paper,                                Everything filled with seven colors of joy,
        They are my escape                                             With warmth in my heart, I watched the
        When I read them                                               stars shine and skies unfold.
        I don't pretend to be happy                                    Today the world is nothing but black and
        I am actually smiling                                          white to me.
        They take me to a world                                        The rhythm that started with joy has nothing
        Away from everything                                           but beats of sorrow.
        I find home between those pages                                The difference between yesterday and today
        Words where I seek comfort                                     was just a knock of intoxication on my door.
        A friend to me                                                 That I let in and consume me like poison.
        Only if one day I could actually                               Life was supposed to be dreamy but now it's
        Go to the world within those words                             dull and filled with agony.
        I would never come back                                        Who do I blame? Perhaps myself,
                                                                       I couldn't close the door at the right time.
                                                                       Now if happiness comes knocking again,
                                                                       I wouldn't be capable to trust again



        FEAR
        He was her master,  She was his slave, With every step she took forward,

        He pulled her a thousand backwards. Once when standing on a cliff,
        Taking a step to cross the bridge,  He pulled her back again,

        Until the ground below her started shaking,
        She didn’t listen to the voice yelling “you will fall”,
        She cut the ropes pulling her back and ran free,

        Safe and across the other side,
        The regret of not taking a step is always bigger than

        the fear of falling, Kill the fear within you, Before it ends up killing you.
