Never Write Again

I've really been quite foolish,
With my words to touch a heart.
Inflicting pain and longing,
And to do so isn't smart.

A gift of words should never harm-
Yet mine have brought much pain.
And in consideration....
I must never write again.

A product of the sage and sand-
I blew in on a breeze...
And like the restless tumble weeds
I cannot rest at ease.

How many people have I hurt-
From reading my refrain?
I think it best for all concerned,
To never write again.

My heart is filled with wanderlust-
My mind does dote on dreams...
I write of never, never land,
Where nothing's as it seems.

I'm burying the dreamer-
Out upon the cyber-plains...
To stop his inspiration...
So he'll never write again.

Well John I certainly hope this is not auto biographical. If it is you may have 'died' with your boots on, but you will never rest in peace on cyber boot hill cause I'm going to round up a posse and bring you back dead or alive!

I agree with John. You have a wonderful talent. It would be such a shame to waste it.

I have been a huge fan of yours since the Spyder days and I surely hope that this is not an actuality as it would be such a shame to loose such incredible poetry.

Be well m'friend.
