A Writer’s Hero.

Crumpled dress,
Messed-Up hair,
Semi-organised thoughts.
Quite often she has hanged 
her dreams onto the edge.
She has written many stories.
She has lived many lives
In those stories.
There were chapters
In which she had to 
keep running.
Before she could reach 
the finishing line,
She ended up landing
to a new starting point,
Each time.
Many pages of her book
Were taken by others.
Few of them, 
she has kept passionately.
While she hoped 
to wash off the rest.
Her fingers are stained -
- Inked - Blue and black.
But when you meet her,
Hold her hand
And kiss those fingers.
When you meet her,
Know that 
you are her 'then-after'
And the 'Hero' of her book.

  1. On garde toujours des traces de la vie que nous avons partagé avec les autres. Certaines blessures guerrissent mais les cicatrices restent comme l’encre indélébile qui reste sur les doigts de la main qu’on aime embrasser . Amitiés.

  2. So lovely …sometimes she used to hang her dreams on the edge, many pages written by others …very nice composition of a journey of courageously trying to own the way of life, yet giving into the flow …starting over again and again ….
