Languish

Again, I write about my writers block...ironic.

You watched as I bled slowly

Dried quick on paper cracked skin

All of these meaningless metaphors

Invisible ink from this pen

I reach out in wonder

You laugh fast till the end

No more troubling whispers

Only silence…old friend.

I enjoyed this poem. Real life and true ending.
"You laugh fast till the end

Slow death or fast death. Just a different place to find. I have enjoyed your words. Gave me reasons to write tonight.

I'm glad that you've enjoyed reading my work. If I've inspired you only a little then I've done my job

I do like your poetry. You make the reader think.

A worm you are not.
It's a lie that you bought,
from a stray random thought.

There's no need for the dread,
shake those thoughts from your head.
If you'll accept what I tell you instead.

You're not stuck in a room.
Or surrounded with gloom.
Time to leave your cocoon.

Spread your wings to the sky.
In a short moment they'll dry.
From here on you can fly.

Alas Val, I feel trapped in my cocoon. Scared, might I be, to leave and grow. Scared might I be to be successful. Do I hold back? Do I make excuses. The answer is yes.

This rotating stone, holds a secret under her ice. A bar code,I.D., expiration date to see. To those who can feel her moaning, the ominous feeling foreboding. Turn your focus outward, for she is not dying. Metamorphosis. We are all going to change. Bring joy to those around you, in the time we have remaining.

I think it's awesome that people can communicate through poetry lol

Every writer gets into writers block, you will find your pen soon and get so many thoughts you will wonder where they have been all the while. meanwhile, read read read so you get ideas.

Yeah, I had this great run for a bit then all of a sudden BAM! Blocked lol The poetry helps quite a bit I must say. As far as reading goes, I try and read at least a little every day, if not more =)
