i used to write
I used to write.
Somewhere it's --
--
It's just lost.
This used to flow
more freely.
That the pen
couldn't keep up.
It was like
I had no pen.
That I just had words.
Beautiful words.
This is not --
--
I used to write.

    "Don't worry, I know how it feels. I'm still hoping that being with you isn't just a dream."

    Amazing Dez. You are a genius writer. Why don't you start writing again?

    "...where one can be wallowing in the black space of sadness and still find that grain of joy that makes you ready… to die or to live. There's where you forget that life is just a matter of waking".

    Beautiful!

    cheer up, dez! * hugs *
    this post reminded me of a poem:

    Forgotten Language
    Shel Silverstein

    Once I spoke the language of the flowers,
    Once I understood each word the caterpillar said,
    Once I smiled in secret at the gossip of the starlings,
    And shared a conversation with the housefly in my bed.
    Once I heard and answered all the questions of crickets'
    And joined the crying of each falling dying flake of snow,
    Once I spoke the language of the flowers,

    How did it go?
    How did it go?

    Awesome writing you've got there. Wow! Maybe, it's an interlude for you. When the muse comes back, you'll be writing with more intensity. Just you wait. :)

    We sometimes feel within ourselves that the fountain of creativity stopped within. As if the precious liquid of infinite prose and lyrics stopped flowing, blocking the transition from the brain towards the hand.

    But it just needs one inspiration to keep it going. A good iol to keep the creative machine going.

    neko: hehe i actually don't know... i think i'd reflect more on Neruda's "Tonight I can write the saddest lines"

    homer: Shakespeare in Love perhaps?

    Abaniko: thanks. i'll be waiting for the muse :)

    Rey Villegas: precisely! there's a big block, i must say.

Name:
Location: Philippines

Sometimes bored. Most of the time oddly alive. Phobic of butterflies. Creatively suppressed. Hungry for coffee and shoes. This is my subconscious talking... at times interrupted by my reality.

soundtrack of the moment
Jealousy, turning saints into the sea. Swimming through sick lullabies, choking on your alibis. But it's just the price to pay, Destiny is calling me. Open up my eager eyes 'cause I'm Mr. Brightside -- "Mr. Brightside" The Killers
