Need an escape?
Need to reshape?
Feel like an ape?
Books.
Can not write?
Light's too bright?
Filled with spite?
Books.Life's too drab?
Feel like a crab?
Picking at the scab?
Books.Tears swimming down?
Want to drown?
Broken and cracked Crown?
Books.Being left out?
Filled with doubt?
Want to shout?
Books.Friends will leave
People will heave
You won't remain naive
But books will stay
They won't lead you away
So come and play
The world is dull and gray
but books
won't betray
