Illumination

By Jehan Z Bano

Words are a waterfall from ink

This page stays blank

The unwritten page flying past now

The book lying unfilled day by day

Drenched my pen in ink

Fooled me that a blank page is an empty one

Colors flash constantly

The world jumbled inside my head

When the pen hits the page

Memorize inside unblocked me

It's only the waterfall of ink

At the edge of along river release stories

That had been long waiting to free fall

While the pages remained blank

My story were still here

Calming presence, future still experiences

Still unwritten, words are a waterfall from my pen
