Missed Connections in Madison, WI
We all want our books back.
We’ll never get them though.
The asking for or the offering to return the books never feels right.
It will always seem like a ploy to spend time with that former lover.
I’ve almost asked for one of my books that is not easily replaceable,
but I won’t ask for it,
I know she wants to keep it and so she shall.
Her Two Cents on Books
I’m going out on a real limb here and guessing that most people reading this also have giant stacks of books in their lives. 🙂 If you have books in your life and you have relationships in your life (lovers, friends, housemates, assorted others…) then chances are you’ve lost a book on occasion. Sometimes the lost books are thought of in a kinder, more wistful manner than the humans who have made their exit.
Gentle Readers: Do you have a book that was lost due to a relationship ending? What did you do about it – buy another copy or gaze longingly at that empty space on the shelf for an inordinate amount of time?
