The Book



Read between the lines
I fill the pages of a book
Searching for a title
Parading in the nook

Genre is real life
My past I have forgot
Eternal ending have timelines
Storylines with no plot

I am the author
I am the character
I am the editor
I am no one
I am a whisper

This is my life
This is my life
