Soaring in between the lines
She reads to leave herself behind
Stark reality paper thin
Black on white endeavors begin
Traipsing through windswept sand
Boldly crossing foreign lands
Star-crossed strangers fall in lust
Induced by fate to die in trust
Words fill up a personal void
Ellipse the boundaries we’ve employed
Oceans part between the lines
I read to leave the world behind.

Though some of the words/phrases seem a bit cliché, I think you caught the feel of the message and expressed it well. I enjoyed this immensely in that I was able to go, "Yes, this sounds like something I would do." I believe you were able to "relate" to the reader (audience) on a personal level. Which many people have trouble doing.

Thanks for sharing.

Lol, the poem's like a journey to find yourself. So in a sense, a journey within a journey. XD

Good job!

There is power in the pen.
