Reason 357 why I can't Write right now
Reason #357 why I can't Write right now
Something inside me must be on strike
I 've gone quiet waiting for the voice inside
Not a whimper sounds, only an empty rattle echos through my chest
The synapses just won't connect
It's not as if I've stopped feeling
But it seems I've become out of my own reach
The glass is full to the brim and as hard as I push it's secrets still won't spill
Every night I dream of water
Facing down tidal waves, standing in torrential rain
Barefoot, and waist deep in the river of my own soul
I smile as the waves get higher, and the ground pools around my feet
Open up the floodgates and let me be free
I scream
But still there is nothing.......
