I dream
I drift away from here
into undiscovered worlds
and people I’ve never seen
I ache, I smile
I travel new roads
to careers I’ve never had
and lovers I’ve never imagined
I open, I grow
without moving an inch
the letters on the page
a doorway to other lives

A beautiful piece.

Books can definitely do that. I immerse myself in reading and get lost in them often. It’s a good way to live while you’re still relaxing at home, drinking your coffee and enjoying the cold weather methinks. A very nice and true poem.
