Escape from real life!
When I sit and read,
I escape to a new land.
Where supermen and women,
Spread hope that is so grand.
The books are an escape,
To leave this world behind.
To have a place to go to,
To find a peace of mind.
I may choose to be a hero,
Or a villain in disguise.
A misunderstood monster,
Or a mum with a surprise.
The books are an escape,
To leave this world behind.
To have a place to go to,
To find a peace of mind.
I can find new friends and family,
In a well written text.
I can resolve other people’s woes,
No matter how complex.
The books are an escape,
To leave this world behind.
To have a place to go to,
To find a peace of mind
A book is a portal,
To another new realm.
To get there yo must read,
Steer the ship at the helm.
The books are an escape,
To leave this world behind.
To have a place to go to,
To find a peace of mind.
You may be witness,
To an awful crime.
You may be the warrior,
Who fights the end of time.
The books are an escape,
To leave this world behind.
To have a place to go to,
To find a peace of mind.
You may be a protagonist,
Chosen for their mind.
You may be the antagonist,
The hero left behind.
In a book you can be,
So many different roles.
In life you can be the same,
If you have achievable goals.
