Unlit sky

My world revolved like a pen

scrolling words of love around you 

But these were unedified scrambles of hoping 

and you were further than the sun.

Now the ink has run dry

and the timeless words faded 

what is there left,

but this impending fade to black.

 

yours reticently, 

Inkstain.

What you really need is one

What you really need is one of these. At 100 bucks a pop, they are well worth every penny...

Seriously, tough---

Love this poem and the 'dry' humour too.

...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

I'm complicated.

If you add a little moisture to your dried up ink the emotions would flow better.

Sometimes we find ourselves at a standstill upon the paper when we are trying to breathe life back into the words that have already began to fade,

because we tend to repeat what we say when the reader wasn't listening to begin with. So we try to find ways to say it differently. Something to attract the attention again...like instead of black a neon green, or puke yellow. Xp

 

I hope you can read between my lines. T.T
