The Paper



The bowl of soul is filled to the brim
And overflowing feelings are spilt on the paper
I need her , I entrust her the whole of me ,
She accepts , she  bears whatever I give
with so much patience and comprehension
There's no argument , no rejection ,
no misunderstanding , no vexation --
I pour , she absorbs , I ache and she heals ,
and soothes and comforts my good friend the Paper
