I am the soul of the ink used in writings.
Gives birth to a new story when used on parchment
From strokes to complete figures, I give life to letters
Building an inseparable connection between the parchment and pen.
I am the living ghost of the tree turned into paper
Its last breath saying, "Please let it be worth it."
I live to bear witness to the works of the writer
I am the living ghost of the letters that formed words
I am the living ghost of the pen that ran out of ink, writing.
I am the ghost of the letters.
I am the soul of the words.
Together, I am both
of the story the pen and paper holds.
I am the soul and the ghost
The beginning and the end
Of the penandpaperscribbles.
