"Not all definitions hold their meaning."-Emma Nadella


Life has already died
To write what I write.
Trees no longer tress,
Dead to those like me.

See I speak of my life
Along something dead.
Quite ironic to ever tell
Even within a bookshelf.

The bookshelf made same
From the books it tames,
For its serves as a coffin
To hold smaller coffins.

How selfish to know now
That the dead are filled
With someone else’s life.
