Wasted Ink

Instead of using a delicate drop of ink on my quill,
I decide to drown it in deeply and get a selfish fill.
As the quill hits the paper, a blot of ink destroys the paper's purity,
I try to write down a verse and only capture obscurity.
I examine the quill and find it destroyed,
now maybe writing is something to avoid.
If only I would have dabbled the quill in the precious ink,
my ideas would not continue to shrink.
It's not how much ink is on the paper that is used;
it getting the ideas across with without ink's abuse.
I will never waste ink;
it is understanding I seek.

It is through this ink that you are able to express, you can always replace your quill but words can never be re written......

| Ink is never wasted.. ink is our blood poured in the arms of paper, giving birth to what we call poetry |
