folded corners
· 1min
No one told me that bookmarks existed.
I had been folding the corners of these pages for so long.
No one told me I could highlight these lines
With such bright and beautiful colours.
I had been folding the corners of these pages for so long.
that I didn’t have to go through those long and dull parts
to find those lines that resonated,
*lines, I had now forgotten
passages, I now missed.
I ruined my books
with these folded corners
and the torn pages,
cause I had been folding these pages for so long,
cause no one taught me how to care
and I was taught so wrong.
