Author's note: You might have already noticed that the title of this poem is a combination of the titles of two wonderful books " Harry Potter and the Cursed Child" and "Paper Towns"! This poem contains 44 titles of novels, both modern and classic. However, that doesn't mean it's not meaningful for I've worked hard to convey a message between the lines (the poem is even related to the title!) Enjoy the meaning, rhythm, and the all-too-familiar titles for us bookworms!!
From the Breaking Dawns until Twilights
Our Great Expectations turn into Wuthering Heights
Fallen into a City of Fallen Angels, Heavenly Fire, and Lost Souls
We only take Eleven Minutes to search for the King of Torts
The Winner Stands Alone,
His Claws out and stretched for the throne
Waiting for The First Phone Call from Heaven
Thirteen Reasons Why instead of seven
The Choice we made is Fifty Shades Darker
And maybe we have to wait till The End of Time or After
To see the City rise from Ashes and Bones
It's on The Other Side of You
But the Eclipse has blinded you
You no longer realize The Fault in our Stars
And the Fifty Shades of Grey in our hearts
Before you Kill a Mockingbird,
See Me and the damage that you shared
You're no longer The King of the Castle
Things Fell Apart and it's The Last Battle
Look Back in Anger as I Lay Dying
At how The Way of the World is changing
Leave your Vanity Fair,
And Round the World in Eighty Days
You'll be Coming Up for Air
On the Twelfth Night in a haze.
Truth is Stranger than Fiction
And The Secret lies in our power addiction
Pride and Prejudice have overcome our sanity
And a Scarlet Letter will be ascribed to humanity.
Children of the New Forest,
We'll leave it for you to protest
Lift the Tale of Two Cities from the doom
And show us a brilliant New Moon.
