Reading
Oh, how much joy I find in it!
Reading
It fills my heart with joy.
Reading
I cannot get enough of it.
Reading
It enriches my mind.
Yet, why has my interest changed?
How has my fluency altered?
I once read with passionate engagement,
fully absorbed by the text in front of me.
Now, I cannot read as I once did,
My passion is not the same.
I long to strengthen my mind.
I strongly desire to grow my knowledge.
But why do I not feel as I once did?
Why has my passionate interest changed?
I wish to find that interest again,
So I may pursue knowledge.
I pray that it will find me,
So I won't fall away.
I desire to read, to learn from my readings,
But, alas, my interest is not as it once was.
