Tinkering with emptiness
on the notepad of my mind
I doodle some musings
scribble some ramblings
fumbling with random words
on a blank tablet called mind.
I was once a poet.
That is, I thought that I could think.
Now, unable to do that ordinary chore of my emotions,
I realise to my utter dismay ~
The memories that were finally pushed away
Are the ones that wrote the verse every single day.
I was merely the pen & paper
Supplied by the muse, The ink flowed directly my way..
what an irony that to be fulfilled or resigned to fate
Has, from U, the most beautiful gift snatched away.

You really do have a talent. Beautiful poetry and a very beautiful person. I love the way you express emotions in such a graceful way. Because truly, my emotions hardly (if Ever) come out gracefully. They juz kinda fly right outta me. Beautiful!

You pulled out some nice verse from a characterization of ‘blank minds’ – too often encountered when I sit down to write 🙂

I don’t know that this poem was as much about writers’ block as about accessing the subconscious where poetry lives! Whatever, if got to me who does access my subconscious except when I have writers’ block then it’s time for a coffee!

I love the way you express your feeling here. I love the idea of how things just appear in our minds and are written on paper then we can’t think of anything else. It is so amazing to me and I have an appreciation for those who can express it so well! Great poem!
