Ink and Bones

The worlds we birth in secrecy.

We are made of ink and bones.

Fingers stained with stories no one knows.

Each word is a spark, a piece of soul.

Each sentence is a bridge to something whole.

We chase the whispers of thoughts untamed.

Hunt the wild echoes that can't be named.

Our pages tremble, fold, and bleed.

Carrying all the hunger our hearts need.

No critic, no eye can truly see.

The worlds we create in secrecy.

For in the quiet, we are divine—

Using only words and time.
