Returned

The Muse had been gone for years I sat alone she was replaces by Depression the Big D I couldn't write anything of value or worth Academia replaced creativity muck to honey now the muse is back I can smell colors feel thoughts my natural LSD Depression is out to lunch the Muse has opened the gates the water of imagination soaks the stone cold once dried dead dam Christ came back after 3 days I've been resurrected 3 years later.

Thank you, yeah I posted this poem when I first joined, but I had to change some choice words. I do feel a lot better, this was actually one of the earliest poems I have ever written. Glad to have it back to share with all of you.
