In the hush of the library’s glow,364Please respect copyright.PENANAELoJm190N0
I find solace in pages worn,364Please respect copyright.PENANAu6DQ7MY0Qy
Losing myself in stories untold,364Please respect copyright.PENANANe8A3stlDK
Escaping the troubles the world has borne.
Yet as I sit, a sorrow lingers,364Please respect copyright.PENANAqpo0xBHWsu
A weight that drapes the hollow air.364Please respect copyright.PENANAMJ50JKmd2W
The shelves once brimming with eager hands,364Please respect copyright.PENANAZSXUv1uMAY
Now stand forgotten, stripped and bare.
No more do students crowd the aisles,364Please respect copyright.PENANAjIRiVIQ7V6
Bent in study, lost in thought.364Please respect copyright.PENANAjBfG4jbyn4
No more do whispers thread the silence,364Please respect copyright.PENANAP8fUJn0hiG
As librarians guide the knowledge sought.
The stillness stretches, vast and deep,364Please respect copyright.PENANAbm7T9LyxE5
A hollow echo in its place.364Please respect copyright.PENANABOf0Ab2Xuc
I miss the hum, the rustling pages,364Please respect copyright.PENANAHgmBSNh8eX
The scratch of pens, the hurried pace.
Yet even in this lonely hush,364Please respect copyright.PENANAbW33dZ6rhi
I find comfort in written words.364Please respect copyright.PENANAjoJIjNMOWj
So I will read, I will dream,364Please respect copyright.PENANAKqw3TCaMGo
And breathe life into the quiet once heard.
