People Are Like Books
A poem comparing people to books


All people are like books, and we read them,
Some people for a month, some people for two.
After only a year we understand some people,
Some people we can never read.

We will read some people and put them on the shelf,
We will occasionally blow away the dust of memory ...
And we keep it in our hearts ... But what's the use?
It's not interesting to read a second time!

There are people-poems and people-novels,
There is poetry and prose - it's up to you to choose.
Maybe it's still too early for you,
Is it better to look through the magazine for now?

There are clear, explicit books,
Some people should be read between the lines.
There are notes - solid shades and paragraphs,
Not everyone could read them from a sheet.

Our world is full of mystery and secrets,
And life in it is only the longest lesson.
Nothing is superficial or accidental,
Just try to look between the lines.
