Paper Words

Run your hands over my words…
                                           Don’t be shy you won’t disturb…
                                              Paper trails from me to you…
                                           No one sees what’s really true… 
                                     Stones unturned as thoughts pretend…
                                          My tattered lines still don’t bend…
