The Book Unflipped

In my bookshelf,
Beneath a layer of dust,
Was a book,
Waiting to quench my knowledge thirst.

'It bears a title so attractive.'
Glanced my curious eyes.
I cleaned and dusted it,
Which made the book smile.

I happened to keep it back again.
Involuntarily, glued back to my mobile.
The book lay in grief and gloom.
Simply waiting to catch my eye.

Similar happens with our life,
We forget to flip the pages,
Forget to discover what lies within.
And just be afraid.

But now, it's time to unleash.
Time to explore our innate personality.
It's right moment to take the book.
Let the pages be flipped.
