I am growing restless
In my thoughts I am thinking
I can not bring them together
Or straighten them out

If I could straighten them out
then maybe my writing
Wouldn't be so mediocre
So bland
So boring
If only I could straighten my thoughts out

I am so restless
That so of my poetry
Gets off topic
If only I could keep on one thought
Maybe this won't become a habit

Oh the restlessness is ruining
Ruining everything I write
If only I was not restless
Then my writing might be so much better

Cold hands means a warm heart

I enjoyed this but it also gave me the thought, of if you ever had thought of making poetry inlike 2 dimensional, as if you wrote about restlesness.

restlessness makes us many times think of more than one thing at a time could well be you could write a double poem with that gift.

Smile give it a try

Your poems are always good Julie. This one's no exception to that.

What is life without poetry and adventure?
"Little sister" is just another way of saying "Guardian Angel"!

Ahhh I know your place in time too well

I agree with Jes, though - make that restlessness work for you. It is your spirit longing to try something new that makes you restless - indulge it and see what happens!

I like how you explain the feeling though - I can really relate!

It's a simple equation....

Restless = Dissatisfied + Growing

It can feel bad, but it's good.
