I don't want this story to end.

I just want to read one more chapter.

I'll try and finish this last page.

Start over again the next day.

Try a little harder and get more work done.

I just want to read a little more.

Memorize each word and page.

Pencil things in.

Jot the right words down.

Let me try to stay up just a little bit longer.

I hide away in the dark.

Reading.

Researching.

Hoping.

Drawing.

Writing.

Longing.

Trying to find that purpose in this world.

Through the written words that I read.

And the letters that I write.

Behind the art that I create.
