The Book

Dust collects on your cover
Your pages are faded and yellowing too
Inside you there are endless truths to discover
But I have been neglecting you, you whisper:
"Open me, read me, be changed, renewed.
Open me, taste of my delicacies, my truth."

So I crack you open not knowing what to read
Turning your insides quickly, what do I need?
But your black and red letters pierce me deeply
They are a lamp unto my feet. Oh you:
Open me, plant a seed, I'm being changed, renewed
You open me, you read me better than I do you

I want to read you, to know you, to taste of your truth
I want to read you, to know you, to taste of your sweet truth
You open me, you open me, you open me as I open you.
You open me

Every person is a book to read
So read me, write me, I am your art, please
Yes every person is a book to read
So write me, read me, I am your art, please won't you
Open me, open me as I open you, open me
Open me
Open me, as I open you
Open me

Write on my heart your love and truth
Place on my tongue your words and truth
Sing in my ear your song and truth
Open me

I smile because my lips taste of your sweet truth.
