Sometimes; inspiration
I can pluck out of thin air
Other times it seems as though
There is nothing there
Some days I can write and write
The words, they never end
Other days my mind is dull
Pen and paper not my friend
I wish that inspiration
Could be a steady flow
Rather than a drought at times
Then a flood all in one go!

I may not be very good But words are in my blood The key word here is "my" Meaning all my own - No need to question why.
A way with words is what they say, I never knew before this day. A smile upon my face when I write something I think is good, a scowl when it's not understood.
I have a special pen that I use for writing. It's a big chunky metal pen with a nice comfy grip. I use refills from a range of pens call Frixon which means I can rub stuff out with no trouble at all.
Ideas flicker in the dark of the mind, Brilliant, fleeting, and Gone. The candle stands, Just out of reach. Waiting for the match. For the spark. For the flame.
You sit and you think What opuss to write You ponder all day You stay up all night Thinking of things You're writing them down Reading them through You're wearing a frown It doesn't look right You...
That itch I had, it's back. I'll take my mind and scratch. Inspiration flows. My hands, they know. To write the hurt away. To write for better days. My perspective view has changed.
Reacting on an emotion, And writing it on paper, Focusing on the moment, And ripping it apart, Studying thoughts in my head, For the words I once said, Finding the answer, In the deepest...
I keep a little book, Where I write every word That I place on my Opuss So that they can be read and heard. But it's beginning to get full. And I'm starting to run out of ink.
@naaviie I've just noticed you are going through every single of my Opusses?! Wow, thank you so much for reading them :). I'll return the favour when I get a chance later!
I know EXACTLY where you're coming from. I've got a few pieces half written kicking about, & know if my mind was in the right place I could also write a quick piece in between....but I'm tired & can't be bothered if I've got to force if. So alas, I doubt there'll be a post from tonight either😔 Hope your inspiration is revived v.soon my friend😌😘
@Fly10 so do I! I have two poems in my head that I know could be good, if I could just find the right words! Half written poetry is the worst, unless you finish something in one go, it's really hard to recall your train of thought. Yeah I'm tired too, doesn't help. Maybe tomorrow!
