Some new poetry for you to sink your eyeballs and mind into. You're welcome for that image!
1.
Attempting
to write again
much
like trying to live again
to
get the lead flowing
to
get the heart pumping
pressure
on the page
pressure
on the chest
Attempting
to write again
trying
to live again
are
the same things
yet different
to
write again
to
live again
one
simply needs
purpose
and a reason
and a want
maybe
you’re my purposereasonwant
maybe
you’re not
but
for now
you’re enough
for me
to
write again.
2.
The
pencil, long since fallen
stares
sullenly silent
condemning
its ultimate betrayer
the
writer whose hands forgot it
and
whose mind rejected it
rejection
stings
even a pencil
feels pain.
3.
Jumbled
thoughts
conflicting
emtions
shit.
write plainly.
Happiness
& dread comingling
in
a confusing dance
Joy
& fear sparring in the back
fighting
for dominance.
worry
for one thing
hope
for another
neither
giving way
neither
gaining
locked
in a bitter embrace
when
time conspired to give joy
it
gives the other also
time
gives & takes
often at the
same…
