Waning Love

My love for Opuss is waning
And yet I don't know why
I still love words and books, stories
Yet there's an emptiness inside

And so I find myself detaching from
The rope from Opuss to me
As it grows slacker, I lose the urge
To write true poetry

This isn't a farewell at all
It's just a pile of words
I'll stick around and write if I
Want my voice to be heard.

The Lack Of Inspiration

Gone are the days. The mystical ways my mind would play. The inspiration I would find from a topic on my mind. The kind way my brain would relay a message. The relationship of a related heritage.

Heart

My heart's a thing. I can't explain. When it embraces. Joy and pain. My heart is young. It catches fire. But keeps me safe. From harm's desire. My heart is old. But still so strong. Keeps me here.

Inspiration.

Inspiration. Strikes. In the dead of the. Night,. Ungodly hours,. Or whilst I'm in. The shower,. My brain confused,. With lyrical. Abuse,. A to Z of verse. Put it together. Make words converse,.

My First Opuss- Hidden Feelings

Oh my goodness, I am so embarrassed about this one. I don't know why. Here goes: I'm staring at this blank page, I'm staring back at me, It's begging me to fill it, To set my feelings free.

Burnt Bridges

You thought I'd gone, I thought so too But something pulled me back Dancing on the edge of hell Peering into black I thought I'd gain my other life At the expense of words But poetry has drawn me...

Write For Love

What is this about, What does this mean. I'm quite unsure, If it's being seen. What is the purpose, Of this quick rhyme. Is it to prosper, To live for a long time. Am I writing, For likes or love.

Aw, shame!! Can't force the words though... 😔 perhaps just have a party for passing instead 🎉🎈🎉🎈🎉🎈

@naaviie lol

Awww. Perhaps it's just a phase💗💗

Stick with it mate. We want to hear you 👍😉

It's probably a phase I went through exactly the same. Just write when you want but stick around I love reading your work. Who will fill the elephant void. 😘

😱😨😭😰😓 I really hope you stay, but I'm not forcing you. I hope this passes over and you'll find your love for Opuss rekindled.

@Nom write when you can Omnomnom, I'll be here to read it 😊

It happened to me too....just relax...do what you love and the rest will follow my sweet💗✨💗

It's happened to me before, too, the moon needs to wane before it's full, again, just write when you feel inspiration and, soon enough, you'll love Opuss as much as and feel as inspired as before 😌 I'll be looking forward to it 😉

Like all the above the same thing happened to me, don't stress about it relax and I'm sure it will come back ❤

@ckahn @leelee101 @eddie12309 @Irrational_Kimmi @misslittleDHP @MelchiorJ13 @sjw thank you everyone for your kind words. As I said it's not goodbye, and I do hope it's just a phase...but either way I know I've slowed down. Maybe I had only a limited supply of inspiration? 😜

To echo everyone else it happened to me before, we can't be writing machines sometimes we just need a break 😊

I know how you fell nom, good luck :)

@MrAlex I've realised that now. I'm just taking it easy. :) however, I'm glad you came back, I've missed your work. (and you).

@AlexMurray thank you. And are you going to stick around?

@Nom 😊😊 I missed you guys too, taking it easy sounds like a good idea we will all still be here!

@MrAlex 😊

@Nom I'll try, I only post when I have something though, so not often.

@AlexMurray that's still good :)

Yep, me too, just taking it slowly.... 💙💛💙

@MrsS it's sort of picked up again for me. Still I'm not posting that often

@Nom I'm a bit on/off at the mo, but mainly find it hard to give time to Opuss, what with my boys 😌

@MrsS kind of the same for me, Opuss was getting in the way of more important things...

@Nom Got to find that balance right? 😊💚💛💚

@MrsS exactly. Opuss will still be here. Your life however keeps moving...

@Nom And move they do, constantly, at 2.5 and 6 years old! 😲😄😄

@MrsS sounds a challenge!
