the light of a night lamp illuminating the pages of a book long forgotten
photosynthesizing the neglected words just like the flowers under the sun
revitalizing the meaning of each carefully picked expression
under the reader's vigilant glance and curious disposition
masked treasures in between paper awaiting a long-anticipated revelation
by those courageous enough to cut down every verbose distraction
and extract their very own, one-of-a-kind antidote for their life's ails
at the end of this wordy road.

This one might not make a lot of sense so I thought about adding a bit more context here :)
basically, I'm just really fascinated by the fact that one piece of art, specifically writing, can have such a variety of interpretations depending on who's reading it. One poem, or one excerpt, or even an entire book can affect people so differently based on what they currently go through, and I just love the fact that one piece of art can cater to people that are experiencing vastly dissimilar things and yet they're all brought together by this one thing! I just love the versatility of that!!
