Burnt Out

Who snuffed out my writing spark?
It used to burn so bright,
Now notebooks, lay forgotten
All, tucked out of sight.

Where did the emotion go?
My urgent need to vent,
Now, when I crawl in bed at night 
My mind is simply spent.

Fun poem. From a mind as witty as ever. You must have had a good nights sleep.
