Upon The Page

by DragonSkulls


~

If might I bleed upon the page
would too, thou reap my joys or pain,
to feel how deep the words or wounds
portray the thoughts that they proclaim?

Dost thou find solace twined in verse
if might I bleed upon the page?
Would here, one know the depth of me
while seeking sorrow to assuage?

The quill and parchment lie in wait
to ease so soft my tattered mind.
If might I bleed upon the page,
sweet refuge frees what I've confined.

Shall all my thoughts so quaintly dance
with elegance upon the stage?
Could meaning hold its valid worth
if might I bleed upon the page?
