Threshold of Ink

[Verse 1]
Coffee stains map old journeys on the page,
But your pencil's ghost, it argues on the edge.
This dog-eared volume, a small ancestral home,
Where silent voices find a shared, forgotten loam.

[Chorus]
Oh, the marginalia, a whispered blueprint trace,
A hundred hands, each leaving their own space.
We build these vaulted thoughts, a liminal design,
A witty ghost-note, yours colliding with mine.

[Verse 2]
Some bold pronouncements, sharp as salted air,
Some scribbled questions, hanging in mid-air.
A coffee ring, a pressed dried olive leaf,
A shared epiphany, or a quiet, whispered grief.
I trace your hurried pen, a scaffold in my mind,
A silent threshold, futures left behind.

[Chorus]
Oh, the marginalia, a whispered blueprint trace,
A hundred hands, each leaving their own space.
We build these vaulted thoughts, a liminal design,
A witty ghost-note, yours colliding with mine.

[Bridge]
Perhaps a grandmother, her thoughts like worn tile floors,
Left tiny marks behind forgotten market doors.
Or maybe just a student, finding faded light,
In forgotten blueprints, trying to get it right.

[Outro]
This quiet conversation, across the dust and years,
A fragile keystone, holding back the fears.
