When pencils break…

Silent scribbles…

By Kenneth cruzPublished about a year ago 1 min read

Sadly I scribble away

Insignificant words filling the page

Lead particles from broken pencils

Eroding away each day

Never a victory claimed

Can’t even capture a runner up

Enough is enough, should I give up
