A page folded at the corner

I just ordered

My third cup of coffee

After all, I am in good company

Words spilled before me.

 

Could they have known —

I will always look for

The smell of old books

In this digital world.

 

Words, my words,

My heart treasures

To put pen to paper.

 

Time is unkind

For a writer,

 

Nothing is ephemeral.

 

You are

A page marked by a folded corner

A love I will come back to

In the future.
