I have written this after writting 3 or 4 others in the last week....they are nothing...they are no good...they are not me. I feel that I have lost all ability.

The Darkness lays silent.
Cold lips froze in time.
Blood spilled on paper
with no rhyme
Puddles of nothing
congeal with no meaning.
Wings of tissue paper,
with no where to fly
Mind full of memories.
No beauty left to cry.
Unable to form the stories,
left with mindless babblings.
Precious words have left me.
The Darkness
lays
silent.

and I am silent with you, Dear.

Good words don't visit me. I have been thinking of writing a book, but have no clue what to write about. I just know I want to write one. How frustrating.

Good to see you.

For having no ability, this is an excellent expression. Perhaps you should reaccess, as I believe there is talent written most evident in this piece. Words well written.

Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind.
