Ink And Paper Will Do

In a dim-lit room where shadows linger, I sit alone, with pen in hand, Seeking solace in the ink's embrace. The paper waits, blank and serene, A canvas for my thoughts to flow, A refuge from the chaos outside. Ink spills forth, a river of words, Pooling on the pristine paper, Each line a glimpse into my soul. Through the dance of ink on paper, I find release from the world's weight, And immerse myself in the act of creation. But ink is fickle, prone to wander, Leaving trails of darkness on the page. I chase its elusive path, desperate to capture The essence of my fleeting thoughts. Yet the paper remains, patient and steadfast, A silent witness to my struggles. In the stillness of the night, I write, Each stroke of the pen a silent prayer, Hoping to find clarity in the chaos. The ink bleeds into the fibers of the paper, Creating a tapestry of emotions, A testament to the human experience. As dawn breaks, I lay down my pen, The inkwell depleted, the paper filled. Though the world may rage outside, I find peace in the simplicity of creation. For in the union of ink and paper, I discover a refuge, a sanctuary, A place where I am free to be myself. So let the storms rage on, Let the winds howl and the thunder roar. For here, in this quiet corner, Ink and paper will always do.
