Within My Soul

Within my soul, a yearning a need for something new. I am an artist, but felt stagnant, unchallenged. It must be something creative, something to fill my heart with joy. Maybe poetry? Why not? Would it hurt to try one?

				an emptiness
			sought hobby to inspire
			     found prancing words

I think we all need to look inside ourselves and do what we love the best. Life is shorter than expected.
