The Blank Page Before Me

The Blank Page Before Me By: Alexis Aslan

Sitting at a blank page
Words surround my entire being
The blank page strikes!

Who knows what will be written upon it
Or what life it will lead.

The blank page talks to me and says,
“You better write something on me,
Or you’re going to fail!”

I respond –
“You know nothing of my future,
For I have not written on you.
My future is destined to be in my hands.
I control you blank page,
And I will write when I want to.”

The blank page just looks at me,
Not sure what to say –
For I want to be an author,
But I’m still sitting
At the blank page before me.

  1. Yes, a blank page in a book is an unwritten future.

    I have to give you kudos for that because I have never drawn that parallel before.
