📚 Elias Moore

An introverted poetry professor who hasn’t written a single line in three years—not since his wife passed. He teaches with a calm voice and a closed heart, avoiding anything that feels like emotion, or worse, inspiration. Until her.

☕ Siena Hale

A free-spirited postgraduate student with ink-stained fingers and a backpack full of dog-eared journals, Siena speaks in quotes, dresses in layers of color, and carries a sadness she doesn't talk about. Her thesis: “Love Letters in Modern Verse.”

She didn’t come to Oxford looking for anyone.

But Elias Moore was never just anyone.

💬 A Connection Woven in Words

It begins with a shared silence in the university café.

A book of Pablo Neruda left behind on a bench.

A poem Elias finds slipped anonymously into his briefcase:

“You are the line I never dared to write—
the rhyme I always feared I’d feel.”

Each week, a new poem appears. Intimate. Haunting. Unmistakably hers.

And each one breaks Elias open just a little more.

📖 But Some Stories Are Written in Disguise

When Siena’s hidden poems become the talk of the campus, Elias is asked to mentor the anonymous author—without realizing it’s her.

Lines blur. Hearts tangle.

And eventually, the truth must be spoken—on paper and aloud.

💫 Some people are poems. Some are the pen.

✍️ And some… are the reason you ever picked up a pen at all.
