In twilight’s hush, where shadows play,
I trace the lines of yesterday.
Vegetable tanned, a scent so deep,
A silent promise secrets keep.
The notebook sleeps, a heart unbound,
With memories on hallowed ground.
Each page a ghost, a faded trace,
Of laughter lost, and time’s embrace.
The forest sighs within the grain,
A life surrendered, eased of pain.
The paper waits, a canvas white,
To capture dreams in pale moonlight.
No loneliness in solitude’s keep,
Where ink-stained fingers gently sweep.
But fellowship with souls unseen,
In whispered tales, forever keen.
For in the folds, a spirit lies,
Reflecting back my own two eyes.
A haunting beauty, soft and low,
Where past and future gently flow.
