Midnight Library

At midnight, books rearrange themselves to choose the right reader

By Akmal95JrPublished 10 months ago • 1 min read

The library awakened at midnight,

books floating softly

toward new shelves.

Stories rearranged themselves

to choose readers

before morning arrived.

A curious boy once caught them moving,

their pages fluttering

like whispered secrets.

They weren’t escaping

they were preparing

the right tales for the right hearts.

He promised to protect their secret,

becoming the quiet guardian

of wandering stories

and unread adventures

waiting for dawn.
