My Favourite Page

Home from the library
I put book beside the table lamp
The day now forgotten
I feel the world around me slip away
Now to be replaced
By an open page
My favourite page
Caught in each chapter
I hesitate, afraid to lose it all
Sp this time
I’m not budging
I’m staying right here
In this paragraph
I tear the pages free
The ones I choose for me
I choose for me… whoa
I have my favourite page
An uncharted island
Where we will walk every beach
Word for word
My favourite page
A warm destination
I’m gonna be there someday
Totally…
