My Own Adventure

I love the smell of a new book
it is a promise of a story that will keep me hooked.
I get attached to the characters
like a widow does to old letters.
I turn page after page
and find myself becoming assuaged.
The more I read 
the stronger the need.
The more details 
the more I have a favorite I wish to prevail.
Hours pass by as I sit in silence
while inside my head it is as loud as a raging audience.
The more into a story I travel
the more my emotions seem to unravel.
To say a good book makes me elated
is an understatement that is far too faded.
Of all the stores I've ever read,
there is always one replaying in my head.
