Cynthia Jones Poet Quatern

Empty Pages -Quatern-

Empty pages lie in my mind 
Pondering about what to write, 
Words are blurred, I feel like I'm blind 
While I sit here so late at night. 

I venture in the dark places 
Empty pages lie in my mind, 
All I find is lonely spaces 
Lost words floating, as if confined. 

Catching up, but falling behind 
Trying to find some bit of light, 
Empty pages lie in my mind 
Words to paper, they must unite. 

I will never give up my fight 
Darkness and words remain entwined, 
Behind a door, locked up airtight 
Empty pages lie in my mind.

M. L. Kiser April 21, 2015 at 2:01 PM I've been there and done that, so many times. Still, I write my best pieces during 12-5am. Cynthia Jones November 5, 2017 at 7:16 AM Sometimes, the flow of words come pretty quick and other others are just by the road to be picked up. Thank you M.L. for reading and commenting. I truly appreciate it. *S* Cynthia
