Lights on well past midnight
Yet the library continues its work
Odd yet normal of a sight
To see the girl reading with a smirk
She acts like she knows life’s records
A meaning hidden in the words
More time passes, she keeps skimming
Soaking in all the mysteries to be had
Lives and knowledge all brimming
No matter if it was happy or sad
The higher meaning she heads towards
A meaning hidden in the words
Using one life to live multiple others
She can’t stop flipping the pages
All the feelings and stories hers
Seeing life’s multiple stages
Not as simple as three thirds
A meaning hidden in the words
The book is closed and put back
A smile of satisfaction on her face
As much as she knows she lacks
But that’s ok for she has grace
Knowing all the she wants undeterred
The meaning hidden in the words
