This Muse... A part of me is missing, Where can I find a spare? My heart has lost its beauty, My pen forgot its flare. My fingers struggle to create, An attempt at something new. But my mind seems to be tangled, My words they fall askew. I'm searching for the words you see, The words of what's inside. But I cannot see my inspiration, I cannot find my pride. Empty words flood empty pages, There's no truth in what I find. No feeling fills the empty spaces, No thought completes this rhyme. I look at what's before me now, It's almost early dawn. But all I find and all I see, Are emotions all now gone. What happened to the mighty Muse, In whom poets find their rhyme? It seems my name she's never heard, Am I not worth her time? What can help me find my way, Back to my writer's heart? No bluejay have I caught in song, No touch has made me start. I cannot conquer hearts as yet, With the magic of my ink. I only wish to find my Muse, And let my soul of poetry drink 8-9-00 [This message has been edited by Salooma (edited 08-10-2000).] [This message has been edited by Ron (06-25-2011 10:07 AM).] |

Salooma: This is a fantastic piece of writing. I agree with Erin in that you should get writers block more often. The rhyme is good and strong. Doesn't miss a beat. Great work Salooma. ~AF~ "Poetry is the language in which man explores his own amazement." Christopher Fry |

If this is the product of a writer's block, I can't wait to read your poems when you're out of it As i wake up in the morning I ask myself, "Is life worth living or should I blast myself" TUPAC SHAKUR |

Cool poem. Writer's block is something we all go through. I once posted a rap about it, but this poem express the feeling much better. One way I find to get past it is to just think of a single verse, and write it down. Although my paes are filled with unfinished symphonies of this type, there's a good chance that the rest of the poem might just flow out. |
