Pen on Paper

There is a blank piece of paper before me.

It is waiting.

There is a story in my head, and words dancing at the nib of my pen, but somehow they do not connect and the paper is still disapprovingly white, empty, and cold.

I steady my hands, and I begin.
My name is Rachel, I write, and my pen draws the ink out of the page.
I am fifteen years old, and I don't know who I am. I used to know who I was, though- a teenager like no one else; unique; and superior. The clichés. But Rachel Leigh Markham is just a name, and I an entity who used to possess it.

This is nobody's story.
