In the hush of the library’s glow,404Please respect copyright.PENANAcRGxERDsVm
I find solace in pages worn,404Please respect copyright.PENANAtoeyzTkRds
Losing myself in stories untold,404Please respect copyright.PENANA6WbDw4q3RN
Escaping the troubles the world has borne.
Yet as I sit, a sorrow lingers,404Please respect copyright.PENANAQEEH7IWL5a
A weight that drapes the hollow air.404Please respect copyright.PENANAUAML7nJlb9
The shelves once brimming with eager hands,404Please respect copyright.PENANAVtEymJLl8K
Now stand forgotten, stripped and bare.
No more do students crowd the aisles,404Please respect copyright.PENANAvgf956eGaB
Bent in study, lost in thought.404Please respect copyright.PENANAmMKTFWQeWw
No more do whispers thread the silence,404Please respect copyright.PENANAN49lZxwDAy
As librarians guide the knowledge sought.
The stillness stretches, vast and deep,404Please respect copyright.PENANAbT5ub0MLiO
A hollow echo in its place.404Please respect copyright.PENANAkHiapduW34
I miss the hum, the rustling pages,404Please respect copyright.PENANA7TcMHmdYv2
The scratch of pens, the hurried pace.
Yet even in this lonely hush,404Please respect copyright.PENANAua9q1IHmx1
I find comfort in written words.404Please respect copyright.PENANApELFgyMg5g
So I will read, I will dream,404Please respect copyright.PENANA1Pntzkt5Yf
And breathe life into the quiet once heard.
