Marks of Us

In a box of relics, memories trapped,

a fingerprint smudged, where joy once mapped.

Dried ink tells stories of childhood art,

a canvas of chaos, a tender heart.


I trace the line, wonder where it’s been,

a reminder of moments where we let love in.

Each mark a testament, subtle yet true,

a portrait of life, painted in hue.
