Only Within the Page

January 30, 2013
By Anonymous

Does it not scare you?
The power in your hands
To write a world
Of history, of culture
People, individuals with Personality
Living only within the page
The strength to be your dream
Or an assassin, or a baker
Possibilities, limitless boundaries
Restricted only within the page
The ability to create a new life
Maybe in New Zealand, maybe in Japan
Fictional places, perhaps in another dimension
Existing only within the page
Do you not tremble?
And shake with excitement and fear?
