In the quiet of the library,121Please respect copyright.PENANAlT2U1Gv0ek
I find solace in the pages of a book.121Please respect copyright.PENANAyJNyIFILob
I can lose myself in stories,121Please respect copyright.PENANAwqcA4TzFQb
Forget the troubles that may look.
But as I sit and read,121Please respect copyright.PENANA7EgOvlITyO
I can't help but feel121Please respect copyright.PENANAobM0nb6jXJ
A sense of sadness in the air.121Please respect copyright.PENANAQghMxxdz0r
The rows of shelves once filled with life,121Please respect copyright.PENANA3UiIVdZpo0
Now stand empty and bare.
No longer do the stacks teem with students,121Please respect copyright.PENANA2WxcqQpIQC
Hunched over books, their noses in the fray.121Please respect copyright.PENANAdkliJ4bAwO
No longer do the librarians bustle about,121Please respect copyright.PENANAA4oKkkBcwg
Helping patrons find their way.
The silence is deafening,121Please respect copyright.PENANAaHLBBluXyn
As I sit alone in the stacks.121Please respect copyright.PENANAGmM6NC5eBe
I miss the hum of conversation,121Please respect copyright.PENANAS1No1y7FsO
The sound of pens scratching on paper, the clack.
But even in this lonely place,121Please respect copyright.PENANAojgDVZQaYx
I find comfort in written words.121Please respect copyright.PENANADORsjturPU
So I'll sit and read and dream,121Please respect copyright.PENANAs61cqcAuGT
In this silent, empty space.
