i took respite from you
notebook
because i had nothing left
to give to you
the truth was worn out
as an old cloth withers away
so did the imagery
i vacationed in the
recesses of my mind
looking for refuge from
drama and crippling realizations
that my truth was
no truer than
the next man's lies
and so your pages remained
bare of any worth because
i was too selfish to
share with you
'looking out for number one'
so to speak
but how to make apologies to
an inanimate object?
the theft of your best friend
the pen
seemed well worth the cost
considering the bargain of sanity
my hope lies now in the
lines of your pages, notebook
i pray my ink doesn't run too thin
to converge on you
