I wish you were a book
so I could
flip through your pages
and
underline my favorite things about you
fold your page corners
and
tell my friends about how wonderful you are
I would save you
in a bookshelf next to my bed
where I come to escape reality
and
dream of things that make me happy
I would read you again and again
as if you were the only book I've got
and
I would take you everywhere with me
because you would make me happy
with the way you choose your words
and
how sweetly you let them flow through paper
