My Inspiration
My Inspiration
Hey, I hope you are doing well.
I know we’ve drifted apart, enough to only be friends but with an awkward past.
But look... all I want to say is that I wish you the best.
I really mean it.
From the bottom of my heart and with the removal of my own selfishness.
I really do wish you the best.
Just remember I’m your number one fan.
I was your significant other in the past but now I’m a spectator on the sidelines.
Don’t feel bad. Don’t feel weird.
As much as I am still emotionally attached,...

Writer’s Block
All out of ideas and it sucks.
Days upon days without any ideas.
So many things surround me to give me inspiration but I can not get one piece, one single idea that comes to my mind.
If anything I am just rambling on.
I guess it happens with writer’s block.
You just throw stuff out and see what sticks.
Sometimes that is it what it is.
Just write things on to a piece of paper or type it out on a document file.
To me it’s a great way to just vent out, even when it’s the frustrations of not knowing what to write.
BUT IT’S SO ANNOYING TO NOT COME UP...

The Dance of Death
The sound of steel crunches through the grass.
Two men, fully encased in armor pace in a circle, staring at each other with their blades out and at the ready for the right moment to strike the other.
Their bodies shaped in a way to signal to the world that they are ready to fight and if necessary die.
Their faces, although covered in steel masks, give off a sort of confidence and a sign that these two are not going to give in into cowardice and run, even though in the moment they both know only one will live while the other will perish.
As time keeps on passing, the...

Life
The child is born and shows no immediate talents that could mark him as a little diamond among
coal.
Growing up in a household with hidden troubles that only rear its ugly head when he is old enough.
Shielded by parents who want to keep them safe. In doing so, a quiet peaceful life and childhood for most of his life.
However becoming an adult gives on different challenges, ones that neither parent can help him go through, and with changing times, it’s rough on the young man.
The young man was always a child growing up, spending time on...

Definition of Inadequacy
That ugly feeling when you see people around your age or even younger, achieve better than you. When those people seem to have a natural gift in the field you strive for, or when you feel out of touch with the world while time passes by. When you see others and their life progresses while you're here feeling stuck or having no interest in the safer route but feeling no progress being done. When you feel as if the person you are with deserves someone better than you. The actions of someone who does things in order to step away from reality because they want to get away from negative thoughts....

Brick Wall
Who said a brick wall is bad?
I'm willing to stand tall, proud, and sturdy.
I'll be there for you when you need someone to talk to.
Even if I don't say anything back, just know I'll be there listening.
I will be your foundation to lean on, to comfort you.
A defender and supporter to get you through the day.
All I ask however is that you are there for me when I need a wall to lean on.
I'm willing to stand tall, proud, and sturdy.
I'll be there for you when you need someone to talk to.

I will be your foundation to lean on, to comfort you.
A defender and supporter to get you through the day.
All I ask however is that you are there for me when I need a wall to lean on.

The Urge to Write
The urge to write is in my body.
I don't know what to write but the urge is still there.
Should I write about feelings?
Should I write a protagonist?
Maybe I should write about how my day went?
The urge is still there!
Ideas flying everywhere!
Get it out of my system!
Oh let me sleep in peace!
Dear lord I'm writing and I feel the release!
Once I'm done unloading this mental encumber.
I will lay back and enjoy this long and peaceful slumber.

My mind, and stubborness
My mind is thinking all the time.
How the hell can I earn a dime?
No interest in going into college to do a study spree.
Just to get health issues, debt, and a paper that says degree.
Maybe that's my stubbornness and a lack of confidence.
But the only way for me to find instant short blissfulness is by writing my own ignorance.

She
She.
She is the one who helped me feel alive again.
She gave me a reason to smile again.
She taught me that life isn't always bad. There is hope and something good to be had.
But now, She feels guilty that she has been selfish.
She feels like a mess, and I know She's not in her state of being the best.
She has doubts about deserving love.
But I feel the same.
I don't think I deserve her, my queen bee.
At first when she told me her doubts, I was in shock.
When I confessed mine, it felt that our hearts were in a hard lock.
So I told her,...

Anxiety
Anxiety flowing through my body.
Heartbeat increasing.
Anger and self-doubt rising.
Stress on my hand as I write, building.
Sadness, overwhelming.
