I think I've lost the way between the poet and the pen. The words that once just flowed have seemed to reached the end. I struggle now to find the time to write what this heart feels and the words slip past my fingers without ever touching ground. I can taste the sweetness of the song but can't seem to read the notes. Too many others wanting Too many others needs I've lost my sense of me It's like a fog I'm drifting through that never seems to lift Icy on my inner skin that sunshine never reaches I need to find the poet the one I used to know so well to set me back upon the path scattered with words and thoughts just waiting to flow together. I think I've lost the way between the poet and the pen. |

Paula, I know the feeling .. you are definitely not alone We all go through it at some time, some of us wander in that fog longer than others .. but we always find the sunshiney spot where the words flow to the page again. Sheli |
