To Judge a Book

To Judge a Book

Lock yourself up tight as a book
Enchanted secrets penned within
Bite the hand that tries to look
Paper binding withering
If they read they’ll know the spell
That sets the pages hot a flame
Glue holds together; it shall melt
Only you will hold the blame
Words written upon your soul
Not for other’s eyes
Deep in your heart you have control
Keep yourself safe from selfish lies
Book’s cover for all to see
The letter’s hidden carefully
