With eyes glued to her book

The zeal in her eyes matched 

The vibrant blue of the cover

Flipping the pages without expression

She did not portray any emotion

But just as her dangling earrings

Her eyes too followed a rhythm

A rhythm from the song of the heart

Did her journey as a protagonist really start

Then did she live 

A million lives

Lives she never thought she would ever

And experience every feeling

All the lows and highs

Cherishing every moment

As she breathed them and said goodbye.....
