Ghost of my TBR

Participating in Diana‘s writing challenge for January.

The link for the challenge can be found here. Though I am late to the party, here goes my attempt:

Felt a shiver up my spine
Afraid to turn around
Ghost of my TBR pile
lurking incessantly
Haunting my existence.
I hear it cry sometimes
In a forlorn tune full of plea
Urging me to look around
And find it lying sprawled
On the sofa, on the ground
On my table and all around me
It looks frustrated
But at the same time pleading
Please go and give me a read
So that I relieve this restlessness
Bit by little bit
Leaving you guilt free
And going peacefully into oblivion.

It was fun writing this as I peeked into my TBR’s soul and I cried a little with it. I do hope to relieve it and my mind of this ever growing TBR.
