in keeping secrets

You know the feeling of not wanting a really good book to end? When I get that feeling I stop reading. I simply put the book down. If I don’t finish it, I can dwell in that world forever, knowing that there is more. I create multiple futures; change the outcome many times over. It stays inside me like an organic creature changing growing evolving. 

That is how I will keep you. That is how I will prevent losing you. You will stay here and become a part of my inner world. We are the only two in here, so we can do as we damn well please. We could burn the whole thing down if we wanted to. Tear up the trees, roots and all, and create something new.
