You're an open book
but often people
rip
out your pages
They take for granted the
honest paragraphs
that make you novel
Unique in binding
tired of hiding
The more people check
you out without getting
past that first chapter
the more faded and
fragile your layers
become
But you won't change
the content
You can't reprint
those inked on sentences
in your veins
that make you
you
The novel that you are
is
Beautiful
Unique
Intriguing
and
wonderfully
You
