Back To The Pen And Paper

Back to Pen and Paper

Kayleigh Gissing

Like pen to paper, I take you for granted. The smooth edges of letters, forming the dip of your lip.

The tightened grip on a pen, like your hand slipping into mine. Rough scribbles of mistakes, reminding us of our own.

We’re letting the past slip away. Our futures turning into screens before my eyes. Can we go back to pen, to paper, where I can write our times, hide secret love notes, wake up to yours?

Let us go back to pen and paper. Let us love like old times.
