In the quiet of the library,287Please respect copyright.PENANA2MLeSrcNVh
I find solace in the pages of a book.287Please respect copyright.PENANAMDe15A5Skd
I can lose myself in stories,287Please respect copyright.PENANAGaY6LY1H8N
Forget the troubles that may look.
But as I sit and read,287Please respect copyright.PENANAKL7C3KBgml
I can't help but feel287Please respect copyright.PENANAD0Hzpf0EFx
A sense of sadness in the air.287Please respect copyright.PENANA8pa4oFfLyr
The rows of shelves once filled with life,287Please respect copyright.PENANA7oCIaB586L
Now stand empty and bare.
No longer do the stacks teem with students,287Please respect copyright.PENANAUUCCVPu8F2
Hunched over books, their noses in the fray.287Please respect copyright.PENANAolKZbMVypT
No longer do the librarians bustle about,287Please respect copyright.PENANAaoR7FzH7Wc
Helping patrons find their way.
The silence is deafening,287Please respect copyright.PENANAIfkt2vxT8Q
As I sit alone in the stacks.287Please respect copyright.PENANAU7ICjCNdeK
I miss the hum of conversation,287Please respect copyright.PENANA6qkNpNg6Lg
The sound of pens scratching on paper, the clack.
But even in this lonely place,287Please respect copyright.PENANAFyPdTYBGcP
I find comfort in written words.287Please respect copyright.PENANAA3upklO0NR
So I'll sit and read and dream,287Please respect copyright.PENANAM0Nhsp6nOl
In this silent, empty space.
