~ Deserted Words ~

Black & White Book
Originally uploaded by vandango

She stared so long

Staring at an empty page

Waiting for words to appear

Yet words refused to surface

And the poem that she was longing for

Remained unwritten

She pleaded to words

Hoping that she can be allowed

After her long abandonment

To be forgiven for her absence

So once again she could shine within poetic words

But the page remained unwritten

Words refused to appear
