Black Ink

Tiny little pin pricks
loaded with black ink;
These tiny little moments
impressed in memory.

It took me millions

of tiny little pin pricks
for someone else to see,
that their tiny little story
had been written all over me.

There's a lot of depth to your meaning, Jacob. I hope most of those ink marks are good memories.
