The Pen<br />
by Vivienne Lazib<br />
It bleeds out,<br />
a vein of ink, spreading like fire.<br />
Free to express what bursts from <strong>its</strong> explosive mind.<br />
No ropes or chains could restrain th<strong>is</strong> beast,<br />
for <strong>its</strong> strength <strong>is</strong> overwhelming.<br />
Some say true power lies in <strong>the</strong> tongue,<br />
but who <strong>is</strong> to question <strong>the</strong> power that undulating scars leave behind?<br />
Silence <strong>is</strong> golden.<br />
In darkness <strong>the</strong> force <strong>is</strong> insignifi<strong>can</strong>t,<br />
but it never dies.<br />
When gleaming radiance blazes upon it again,<br />
<strong>its</strong> energy <strong>is</strong> revived.<br />
The pen<br />
preserves <strong>the</strong> past,<br />
permanently impressing it onto <strong>the</strong> present,<br />
<strong>the</strong> <strong>wonderful</strong> <strong>bird</strong> Ardingly College 2010<br />
continuing <strong>the</strong> present to <strong>the</strong> future .<br />
