Unable to pull the pen across the pad My words locked inside my mind fermenting The act of expressing my emotions has vanished Has my gift come to pass like some common fad? Half finished sentences stare back tormenting Has the devil with a halo been banished? Finished before I have begun My words have been immortalized Yet was my soul truly worth this My words have been disbanded like the shogun The ink well that is my mind has been sterilized Feeling like a ringmaster with out a circus Writing out of confusion Not from the inferno that resides inside Like a mime I have no words to convey Was my ability a lucid delusion? On this path I have come to the divide I have chosen the one where few stray The pen begins to stutter across the line Is this what they call writers block Or could it be something deeper Is it time to be the 7-11 and hang the closed sign Stuck between that hard place and the rock Have I truly met the artistic reaper? Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |

Have I truly met the artistic reaper? I think not.  My muse has been missing for quite some time now. Yours seems to be present and in fine form ! hugs, Chris Poetry is an echo, asking a shadow to dance. |

Thank you, Nightshade. I hope you are right. I am sure that your muse is hidden not missing, may I suggest finding a busy intersection planting yourself down and feeling the energy that transpires. Tomorrow comes for those who fear it. |
