Analysis of The book



So quiet but full of words,
Because every word l ought to speak
You take in and seal
If intentional would you wanna break me down
Then my shame shall be shameless to the world
L badly confide in thee for l know
You shall never erase every moment unless l do so

So faithful to carry all my weights
It is no secret when l feel sad,
L bury me in your comfort
Lts so beautiful that l feel exuberant
When l trace every single word
Lt lights me up as l read to be wise
L pledge every single  to be
The faithful friend to you as well
