Indiscretions of a book

A book fell in love!
Blasphemous!!

courtesy:Google

THAT was not, definitely not meant to be!
It was never expected of it.
You know.. how you never expect sands to build a home on their own
Or how you never expect storms to facilitate your journey
Much the same, you do not expect a book to fall in love!
Books are not supposed to.
That too a book of this nature.

A serious, no-nonsense, intellectually stimulating book and it's knowledge-filled pages,
Each page inspired awe! Invoked respect! 
But seldom, love!

Don't get me wrong! You can love books!
Some books can be loved
For some books you can use the word weakness
They are nice, sweet, petite books.
They come across as vulnerable. 
They come wanting to be tucked below your pillow forever.
Not this one!

You don't expect anyone to love a book of this volume, of this nature.
You read. Close. Stay away.
Quote at times from memory.
Completely out of context, mostly!
Does not matter
Who else has read it anyway!

You generally maintain a respectful distance.
And to think, this book will fall in love!!
Pure blasphemy!!

But that happened.
The book with no gender,
Not even a single page on romance,
That confusing, respect-evoking, distant-natured book
Fell in love!
