for the love of books & poetry

Books. One of my greatest loves along with music and poetry...With any of these, my life would be totally different and thats not necessarily a good thing. In fact the thought scares me. Love <3

thank you Mysterious One books, music and poetry are a great comfort indeed.. I cherish your support dear one.. love Crim

I love this, Crim. Well done. No matter how bad the day seems we can always find solace in the pages of a good book.

thank you graciously Darkest Lord yes we can always escape into different landscapes in our beloved books :) love Crim

So beautiful, Crim, that place we escape to when we read. These things keep us strong and when the story ends, we write our own.
I've strayed from such things in the past only to return. My life was much more empty without them and I won't make that mistake again. Maybe it's in our blood?

Thank you for this enjoyable read...

thank you lovely Kasai I will be able to return one day just some concentration issues at the present but you're right poetry is currently open for me so I write my own story perfectly put dear one :) love Crim

"if you want to know me      
I'm hidden safely within the page" > such beauty in these lines!

"secret places      
where I slipped in      
became the heroine > now thàt's clever!!! (pen bow)  
in the world of words"      

Loved this poem, dear Crim

Love, Duende

This is such an amazing write to me.....very heartfelt and open I can identify with it a great deal, I use poetry and music and books to escape life and kerb my loneliness and sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't...this however highlights this beautifully.

Dearest dark angel, you stole a piece of my heart with this beautiful write.  How deeply I relate to this piece.  Another life, another world, an escape from reality...perhaps a chance to recharge to head back in for another round in the fray of life.  Beautifully done!

You found fantasy and escape in books as a child, but now you make your own contributions to alternative worlds.  You create a few of your own Lady Crim, some dark, some light, but always fascinating...
