Set free my captive mind The pen needs no water nor light It spills the ink of my soul in letters The blunt lines and dark smudges Staining my fingertips as I rub to blur it out Making it look soft and old A part of the past I can still see the grooves where the ink ran out Of when I wrote you for myself And in a candle lit room When I tilt the paper I can make out the laugh in your smile And see where we hug So what if it's barely visible I don't believe in bad omens
