All I Need Is A Story


When life gets me down 

I go away to a different world

a world where I feel loved

a world where I feel home

It could be Hogwarts

It could be Camp Half-Blood

Just a place where I can feel safe

Just a place where I dont have to be me

A story can take you there

A story where your a dragon fighter or a princess

Only there can you truly be you

Only there can I truly be me

Next time your sad don't hurt yourself

Next time your sad don't cry

Open a Book and be someone new for a little while

Open a Book and be you

All I need is a story.
