I don't entirely think I've had enough rum to allow that kind of talk.

Papercut
May 17, 2004

A blank piece of paper
is a canvas
upon which a soul
can be written
bad or good,
memories are immortalized
in ink, thick as blood
which dries upon the page

A blank piece of paper
no longer blank
but what of the soul
written upon it
bad and good
memories are shattered
as the ink is covered in blood
dripping from her wrist

A blank piece of paper
blood splattered now
the soul no longer seen
as the writing disappears
bad turns to worse
memories swept away
and ink is now a pool of blood
expressing her every thought

"blank piece of paper, no longer blank" >>>we think alike, I have a poem with those words. Yours is better though. I really like this

One thing, last stanza, "writing" is mispelled as "writting". Otherwise, very nicely written! Very nice strong words, making a great image....well...a sad one...
