Pen and Paper -- Song/Poem by Samson Koshy

Pen and Paper 

Staring down at the still pond
A glance at where I started
with so few words to be found
A while since pen and paper parted

As tired leaves caress the stillness
slowly blending with the light.
As fire that breathes beneath the stillness
like darkness in the light.

But if I ever lose my memory
I will listen to this melody
and the words that flow into my ears
like bright stars through my fears

And the shadows of love and peace
woven together as a single piece
Flowing through pen to paper
before words turn to vapor

Thank you Pen and Paper
for the stories you put together
for the sunshine in your words
for the rainbow in your verse
