In the hush of the library’s glow,371Please respect copyright.PENANAUHhXTSmFvT
I find solace in pages worn,371Please respect copyright.PENANAIdAiNTADWc
Losing myself in stories untold,371Please respect copyright.PENANA328NMzKRaf
Escaping the troubles the world has borne.
Yet as I sit, a sorrow lingers,371Please respect copyright.PENANAjrgGs927eG
A weight that drapes the hollow air.371Please respect copyright.PENANAtCShGk07Ms
The shelves once brimming with eager hands,371Please respect copyright.PENANAwhLnNRReVr
Now stand forgotten, stripped and bare.
No more do students crowd the aisles,371Please respect copyright.PENANAnfpyFPYxlg
Bent in study, lost in thought.371Please respect copyright.PENANANR1ywo2YWB
No more do whispers thread the silence,371Please respect copyright.PENANAtwl3f59Tym
As librarians guide the knowledge sought.
The stillness stretches, vast and deep,371Please respect copyright.PENANAIyzHHIytmX
A hollow echo in its place.371Please respect copyright.PENANAFl8YYGABwy
I miss the hum, the rustling pages,371Please respect copyright.PENANAvGQkLkytj2
The scratch of pens, the hurried pace.
Yet even in this lonely hush,371Please respect copyright.PENANAD053Sz9Z4Z
I find comfort in written words.371Please respect copyright.PENANAecMmzLjeDt
So I will read, I will dream,371Please respect copyright.PENANAsQwhWijMGr
And breathe life into the quiet once heard.
