And Then I am
thoughts left unlived
scratched on granite
fading graffiti
stared to white
hollow voices
whispering what ifs
wrenched from the cold
outside looking in
muses flown
mocking from clouds
laughter ringing boldly
at scratches on white
nothing bleed from quills
just fancy doodles
day by day
growing more meaningless.

Grace dear lady this made me sad to know you are feeling this way..
though seemingly meaningless at times our muse and pen is a great way to journal our emotions..
you have done just that with this poignant, beautifully written poem..
love Crim

You've captured that space in between perfectly, Grace.
And, you're also doing what you need to do - write it out.

"outside looking in "
I use that expression all the time, I feel like i can see whats going on but my perspective is limited.
Grace you always intrigue me, this poem no less

Grace,
Beautifully, sadly, expressed. You know as well as I, that you can't force the ink thru that pen. Try something completely different and you'll be flowing in no time :-)

- The accursed blight that is writer's block, encapsulated in the perfect bitter pill. If I could but match your words and skill!

Writer's block is unfortunate for aspiring poets, really. But it seems to be my lot presently.
You are a talented writer in my opinion. The presentations are just unique to yourself. Thank you for dropping by and reading.

Well unique is one way to put it, followed by a raised eyebrow. Seems writers block is a bit like death: it comes to all and cares little for time or place. A run and change of pace seem to keep it at bay for a bit!
