Better Tomorrow Part Two

Brain's busy, I'm feeling dizzy
Drops the pen for a leisured tomorrow
Creativity stretched to limit; I'm not being lazy
Continuity's road deadly and narrow

Inspiration didn't betray expectation
Leisure didn't fail my confidence
But it flew in another direction
Same entry but different emergence

I woke when originality went to bed
Should've tarried and get the work done
I survived sadly to see my art's dead 
The breathe connecting me to it is gone.
