I tried;

 I tried avoiding myself.

I tried;

 i tried burying myself in books.


focusing on the mysterious, mythical creatures

feeling like i was part of the pack, 

imagining what it would be like to run with the wolves.

 pounding paws, beating heart

 a fictional dream that i was well aware of.


i tried;

i tried forgetting about who i am.

I tried;

i tried running away from my reality.

focusing on the now 

not attempting to lift my nose from my world of a million words,

a million pages and a million and one dreams.


I tried,

I tried putting it off.

I tried,

i tried procrastinating the findings of the basis of my existence. 

The truth is that magic and  Imagination isn't the same as reality.


I still love books, i still love to float in the suspense of world of a  million words,

a million pages and a million dreams but now;


i try,

i try  to read myself too.

i try,

i try to live in my own world of a million thoughts while still

enjoying the world of a million words and the combination couldn't

be any weirder and you know what?

that's what i love most about it.
