a half-read book MAG
i have this problem
with half-read books
i start it during school break
and then half-way through
i discard the book to its nook
to go back to school
back to crunched time and stress
stuck in my world that is fantasy-less
but the problem with a half-read book, you see
is that from the edge of my desk it keeps calling to me
i scribble my notes
calculations on my sheet
eyes keep drifting
till my half-read book they do meet
the unfinished story
the paths left unfollowed
it gives me this feeling that feels sort of hollowed
tucking my homework away for a spell
i find myself inching over to dwell
right by my book
itching to be read
1 hour
2
3
and a half
half-read book
fully finished at last
