Pandora's Box

Countless things change through life through a series of sequences; childhood, adolescence and adulthood. One’s life is packed with inane habits learnt through puberty; an experience that one would rather forget. For a few years one is bombarded by pain, loss, annoyance, and stupidity; many seem to be corrupted by nature’s mechanisms of growth; one begins to think they know everything and thus take obtuse risks along with making the utmost ridiculous mistakes. Nature begins to open Pandora’s box creating a tidal wave of events shaping us all via pathways jam-packed with obstacles that one must conquer to become what nature intended.

Your poem is full of emotion and life, well done, now regarding your blog on Writers Block, like you I have been writing since childhood, I have always had my favourite places that have changed along the way, you may laugh but churches inspire me now, the utter silence is the reason, but when I am stressed and depressed or not well, I cannot write, I am blank, I need to find my inner light again~~
