Here you are,

Surrounded by books,

That make my day.

I read these stories,

Get lost in their pages,

Find joy in the simplest of things,

My message here to you is…

“Books are my family,

My friends,

And I disappear inside them,

To escape the people who insisted,

I disappear for real.”

Books saved me from bullies,

And you gave me those books,

That saved me,

That saved my life,

Thank you.

I only ask one thing of you,

Pass this poem on,

Give it to your family,

Your friends,

Anyone who will listen.

Post in on a website,

Something,

Just as long as the message is heard.

Books saved my life from bullying.

Give a book,

Save a life.
