oh dear friend
Paper of this book behold my modest gift
I give you my joy and tears
I give you my soul
and I give you
the ticks of the clock
and the noise of the street
I give you the recipe of me
words that dare not depart from my mouth
I teach you
secrets un_known to this world
I confine in you
the scent of you
is my drug of truth
all is revealed
all masks are dropped
and I stand naked before you
so behold my modest gift
my greatest burden
with no allure

That's a beautiful poem. You have a good relationship with paper. To me, it's daunting and a little scary!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!
We who write do leave our imprint on paper, even if we don't send our words hurling into the ether for public consumption. How sad that your love is closeted!
ReplyDeletePaper can leave such a story behind to those who find it. Great poem.
