The Pacesetter

The loss of ink
Unable to think

It's been awhile
Have I lost my
style?

The thoughts
come racing
And now I'm pacing

Because your 
next thought
Isn't quite your 
own

I should have
known
All along

That everyone else
Would tell
you

You've always
been wrong.

The inks are available and the paper is always waiting. When you hold your pen, it will travel into whatever zone you feel comfortable in. This is the love and beauty of writing; dry patches and puddles only make the rest of the scerery more wonderful. Wishing you the best Adam...God bless you and yours!! Mikki
