Touching Ink

When the pen kisses a blank page,
I feel the most breathtaking release.
Touching ink, any ink, to paper.
Two things that are truly in love.
So beautiful, so legendary.
Perhaps they could love me too?
They accept me like no human can.
Seeing my words in ink, any ink
Brings tremendous joy to my heart.
Knowing I am able to do some right
In such a wrong society.
I often feel like no one,
Bit never when
I'm touching ink, any ink
To a blank page.

I absolutely love this. Perfect description of the passion and release us writers feel when writing. Something so breathtaking, I feel the same way. I ccouldn't seem to find the right words to express how it feels, but you did it for me. Great poem 😊

I really like this. It expresses how, as writers, we can only feel bliss when we do what we think is the only thing we can do. I love that thought.

Words are the voices and the paper is the only person we actually find ourselves telling everything too without even realising.

I really like this, and can completely relate to how wonderful writing can be.

I could not agree with you more! Touching ink to paper allows us to be ourselves without the criticism that is often inflicted upon us by our society!
