In the hush of the library’s glow,389Please respect copyright.PENANAkOaJd57k1W
I find solace in pages worn,389Please respect copyright.PENANAB6UQ7P1uID
Losing myself in stories untold,389Please respect copyright.PENANAazysDneVPY
Escaping the troubles the world has borne.
Yet as I sit, a sorrow lingers,389Please respect copyright.PENANAVAz33ulsJd
A weight that drapes the hollow air.389Please respect copyright.PENANAMEjjaD7Tyz
The shelves once brimming with eager hands,389Please respect copyright.PENANAbiXpbLYa0P
Now stand forgotten, stripped and bare.
No more do students crowd the aisles,389Please respect copyright.PENANAzmQYIKNEiy
Bent in study, lost in thought.389Please respect copyright.PENANATPAjdxoOsZ
No more do whispers thread the silence,389Please respect copyright.PENANADpnhUxbKwl
As librarians guide the knowledge sought.
The stillness stretches, vast and deep,389Please respect copyright.PENANAVKQ5nZ8JHq
A hollow echo in its place.389Please respect copyright.PENANAhccVAGNdIf
I miss the hum, the rustling pages,389Please respect copyright.PENANAkwTAfbpMP9
The scratch of pens, the hurried pace.
Yet even in this lonely hush,389Please respect copyright.PENANAW0HUchggyI
I find comfort in written words.389Please respect copyright.PENANAl2bTLalA5Z
So I will read, I will dream,389Please respect copyright.PENANAarhRUDrRrP
And breathe life into the quiet once heard.
