Blank Page

A poem by little_butterfly_14

Word by word

Written and scribbled

Just look at how absurd

They all just rippled.

 Words turned to drawings

The paper was full

It finally turned to withdrawings

But it refused to pull.

The paper once blank

Was now covered in unforgettable tales

I have none but you to thank

For all it needed were details.

Day after day

There was more and more to write

But no more space to say

It wasn't all that bright.

Scribbles of all kind

Overwrites and cancellation

Nothing to see behind

But I had to get it back, to stop frustration.

The paper crunched in mystery

I happened to do just that

A whole run of history

Fell hard onto the ground, just flat.

Trampled upon and lying there

I grew lonely without it

I needed it like I needed air

But I never could think to admit.

I know the paper's torn

I get that and I can see

You may have not known

But would you grant a blank page to me?
