As you read these words, you might be hearing a voice.
Not the voice of an author but the voice of a poem.
How lonely we become that paper becomes our closest friends.
Writing away our lives until the end of time.
I think about your words without you knowing.
I reflect a part of your personality in the way I cry.
I reflect a part of your personality in the way I survive.
I scream words in my head, but I am silent in front of you.
Feeling alone under the large blanket of stars.
I tell my secrets to them but not one of a million whisper back.
You might feel alone as well but do not listen to the shadows.
You are never alone because I am reading your soul.
Your lyrics have become the bandage on my wounds.
Maybe pain is created so that we may be created in art?
How would we ever paint with only the bright colors?
We could not sign songs with one straight emotion of joy.
Without the villain, no moral of the story is ever given.
In the beauty of a forest, there is more shadow than sun.
In the strangest way, us writers are more alone than others.
Though, in the end, us writers are the only ones not alone.

Thank you. The inspiration came a bit from the quote by Anne Frank – “Paper has more patience than man.”
