Douglas Ace Poet Rhyme

When Nothing Comes To Mind

I feel as though I've lost a friend
when nothing comes to mind.
Are my days of writing at an end
when no words to write I find ?

Looking back on seasons past
there was hardly a day went by
where thoughts would flow from my mind so fast,
but not now, and I wonder why.

I long for the days I knew before
when writing came with such ease.
Every poem finished left me wanting to write more,
and now, to struggle is such a tease.

Douglas L. Ace

Tyesha Ehigiator February 23, 2009 at 7:45 PM I can strongly relate to this Douglas, I go through so many days where my mind is just blank and I hold the pen and can't think of a single thing to write..I struggle with what I already have and get so frustrated that nothing seems to make much sense..I seem to be able to really write more when I'm angry or in pain.. I am sorry you are struggling and I hope soon you will be writing like you used to..This however was written beautifully coming straight from your soul. God Bless*Tyesha
