True Colors

How could I have hid for so long?
I love the smell of books and
The brightly colored bindings
It is a mystical place

I loved going to as a child
I pretended that I wasn't
that girl who wanted to spend
hours hidden among books

I never said I liked to read
Avoided getting labeled
weird english major
Although I loved to imagine

All of the possible scenarios
Of times past
and of times to come
Dreaming and Reading

Of others troubles
helped me to forget my own.
