Shallow aspirations,
masked apprehensions,
callow words,
stories told.
♥
Trials or tribulations,
finessed or artless,
but naivety is better than regrets,
experience does teach that.
♥
It’s time to celebrate,
the victory of words,
over mindless reservations,
and mundane adversities.
♥♥♥
BadBookthief completed 4 years today.

The beginning was harrowing.
But could it be more rewarding?
Every time that I have written something,
has brought joys and satisfaction, in plenty.
I owe a significant serving of this euphoric treat to you, my readers.
A heartfelt thank you to each one of you, for your love and camaraderie.
❤ Hoping you enjoy the cupcake. ❤
