My Pages Poem by Samantha Campbell

I wish I could erase all this permanent font...

That You Engraved
Into every lifted Moment

Transcribed from Braille
To Neurotic Microchip Diction

My tongue's taste buds
Licking the edge of this enveloped
Passage

As my soul dripped onto your Pen
and the Ink dripped away from my reality

Wanting to shred each and every
corner of the creased bookmarks

Y
O
U

Left on my heart
Forcing me not to close this book
but to change the chapter

And start a new story in the same
Book

Never really ending
No Happy Ever After
No 100 years later
No fairytale ending
No deceased retelling of that Novelia

Simply an un-paused
Discontinuation of
Daunting Disbelief

Tumultuous Temptation
Torture in Text and
Torn pages
Does not Tremble
in Italicized font

Trying to make text tiny-er
While fooling myself
into feeling fortitude and
flawless faults forcing
friendship to fall into it place

Purposely perplexing my heartstrings into
Pumping into another chamber

But it seems my bicuspids are too weak
Flowing into two different holes

Fighting silently
Bleeding onto all the pages
Unknowingly unable to cut the sequel into a short story

I can't help but regret that I do not regret
any of my past regrettable reasoning's

Refusing to release the remnants of
Y
O
U

Not by choice But by preference

An imposter Poet wishing to not be of her word
Because my pen never changed its owner
Muse musters up energy to manipulate mind over matter

I wish I could white out the Blue Ink
But there isn't enough substance
Just because I close my eyes
does not mean I can't see
I can't feel

My insides bleed blue Screaming
onto braille for no one else cannot depict
what should not be seen

You're book was left with blank pages Only to continue
Shakespearean myth

It seems the sage continues as
I Dedicate My Pages To You.
