The Chipped Pen
Watching the lyrics
Flow out of your chipped pen
I think about how
We have come to be
How we can speak
So easily
The touch of your gaze
Reminds of the prophetic phrase
Eye contact isn’t
What it used to be
These simple verses
Make you so dizzy
The elation is electric
Bliss reigns
Where our lines overlap
Our story breathes
As your pen scratches paper
I can imagine you here
But it isn’t quite the same
As the touch of your breath
Draw me
Make me part of your sketch
Part of your conflict
Make my heart crumble
Like clay in a lover’s hands
I always knew you had the ability
In your capable hands
The chipped pen
Will dance
