Unfinished

the pages of life
are soft with use
edges worn by time
lines faded by laughter and tears

some chapters arrive in color
full of sunlight and song
others come quiet
stitched with shadows

we do not choose every line
but we carry the ink
writing in hope
and in heartbreak

and still
the pages turn
one by one teaching us
that even the unfinished
is still worth reading
