Me and my Reading Light

I can hear whispers
floating on the wind,
breaking every little rule,
letting every thought in.
What was supposed to be a secret,
now everyone can hear.
Don't worry,
I won't tell anyone.
They already know though.
Me and my reading light,
we stay up late,
and flip through countless pages
of 
happy thoughts
and miserable dreams.
Me and my reading light,
listening to the whispers,
typing late-night emails to my friends,
laughing as my OC laughs,
crying as the main character is sexually abused,
writing poems,
singing in my head,
thinking thoughts,
me and my reading light,
praying for my friend,
me and my reading light,
two stars in the dark night.
