My Pen
Lies between the pages
Of some book
I keep going back to
Over and over
I want not
For the ink to dissipate
Loving the pen
The way I do
Chastise me for loving
An obect
Which wears pieces
Of me
Perhaps in the microscopic
Or something...
I've scribbled secrets
Held it between my lips
Speaking softly of my thoughts
Yes, yes
The pen is mine

My pen leans forward, sometimes holding back
these words that are writing, filling out my lack

He is a great boss
If I had
Not bought him
He thinks
My writing would
Be sleeping
On shelves
On dust
For years
Undiscovered
