How to Fill an Empty Page
A paper or book doesn't fill itself with the words.
I.
What a blank page
may conceive.
Untapped feelings,
unexplored worlds,
secrets revealed.
II.
The truth comes forward,
and starts to heal.
Anything’s possible,
but nothing conceived
if that pen doesn’t touch
that empty page,
and create a world
that dwells within.
III.
But it doesn’t happen suddenly
It doesn’t happen spontaneously
It starts with a dot,
then the pen moves
And the ink stains the sheet
In the right way
Possible.
IV.
And those thoughts
flow through your pen
Ah, yes!
The world within
flows hard and fast
V.
The pages turns
but empty no more.
Everyone exposes
The world within
n your own head.
VI.
And it continues
until your hands screams
No more, no more!
VII.
But the pain reveals
the world within,
for you to see,
for all to see.
VIII.
Thus, the page is filled
With the world within
That needed a way
To escape from your head.
