A room without books is a human with no soul.

Burning fingertips, under scorching glares
Impossible stone facades, and my
withering state.
I'm about as solid as a paintbrush after
years of steady work
Wearing my words and metaphors, but
I still feel naked
Ugly bones, and deserted dreams being
hidden under a pretty face
Wretched throat, sore of screams
Nightmares, both asleep and awake,
suffocation.
