READ

I am sitting on an iron bunk,
staring out of the window,
watching how the rain is drizzling ,making the sky a blue black colour,
watching how clothes are falling from ropes as wind blows...
I am sitting in darkness,
READING...
I read to avoid all my problems
I read so that I don't have to think about my world...
I read because it is a haven
A shelter,
It warms me
It challenges me
It breaks me
I read to step into the world...
Instead...
I focus on the life of someone else
Even if that person does not even exist.
