I write in the dark
but its sunny outside

I write of the hate
But i am loved

I write of the death
but life goes by

I write of lonely
but get hugged

So of what do i write now
that my woes no longer come

It simple really

It is always dark inside
I can only loathe myself
I can look at death of else
and and i can forgo the hug

And woes we all have woes

You cannot escape from the dark
I am the dark and the light
The Alpha and Omega
I don't know what to write
for i am the words
I am the fury

So in the words
in the fury

i write

Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

You are a man after me own heart, Walter. I have long said that the best cure for "writer's block" is to write about writer's block. :-) It seems that message is wasted on you, since you already know.

A poem's just a poet in a word.

BRAVO!
It's a pleasure to read
such poetic frustration!

Each of us goes through this from time to
time. Sometimes a duet helps break myself
out of it...

I don't think darkness has to hide inside of us, for us to be inspired to write about it. Darkness after all is all over in the world today... But then balance is something I believe in, and where there is dark, there is light, where their is no hope, you can also find hope.
