My dearest black book, 

how I dare not touch 

your gentle, white pages 

and paint them red 

with vivid, painful memories 

that tear my heart open. 

Photographs of friends 

say I was once happy, 

but those memories 

are far and few between, 

falling ever so bravely 

across your book’s edge. 

A pen tells me, 

begs me to write, 

but to write 

is to relive. 

A year came and went, 

and you lie still, 

closed to the world, 

shot down by me

until I save you again, 

my dearest black book.
