Book

Hey guys,

This is a creative writing I did the other day, Hope you enjoy it.

Book


There is a book,
That holds everything,
Everything you have been,
But nothing that you will be,
For those are the words which you will write,
You will not use a pen,
But your heart and soul,
The words are of your choice,
You can tell tales of freedom and prosperity,
You can tell tales of hopelessness and loss,
You can draw pictures full of color and beauty,
You can draw pictures that will haunt you forever,
Will the book tell of your compassion and understanding?
Or will it tell of your selfishness and lack of tolerance?
Some pages will make you cry,
Some pages will make you laugh,
Some pages will have no words,
For sometimes nothing can mean everything,
Some pages will be remembered forever,
Some will be lost,
Some pages will be filled with joyous times,
With stories of family and friends,
Some pages will be filled with sadness and sorrow,
When loneliness just never seems to end,
Sometimes the stories will tell of braveness,
Sometimes the stories will tell of fear,
No matter what you choose to write,
Your story will be read,
The reader will know who you are,
What you did,
And what you were,
Will they be inspired?
Or will they be appalled?
And when they put that book back onto its shelf,
They will see the title,
And it will say,
"This is a book of Life"
By, you.
