There I am all alone,
Totally lost in the land of unknown,
I am walking and there’s no one beside,
I am walking keeping all the tensions aside.
I look here , I look there, no one I see,
As the things continue to astonish me,
With intimidation some moments fill,
And some with extreme joy and thrill.
I don’t know where the things are leading me,
I’ll just have to wait and see,
As of now the fun continues ,
In the land of mysterious fancy.
I am halfway through,
As the things pace up bit,
Eager to blow off ,
The candles of curiosity which have lit.
Inches away from the ultimate destination,
As my heart pumps with a curious sensation,
Eager to know what its going to be.
Eager to know what next will I see.
Finally the shackles of suspense are broken ,
Everything is clear but my body is frozen,
And boring suddenly the things look,
When I come out of the world of my book!

Beautifully said, and a nice little journey… just the right length.
Books can make us well-travelled without having to change our physical location. 🙂
