American I'm just trying to find my way / writing what I feel in every moment
You open the fortune cookie and there is nothing inside

You know you're in a slump when 10W
I have so much to do But I am a statue. I'm frozen. Words are held just on my lips. Power peppered on my finger tips. When much is given much is expected. Prose. Prose Prose Prose. No one knows. What do I know. Am I a God. I am a God. Gods lead, Gods create. I create. I create at will what I will I will what I create. Not good enough. Too late. I have so much to do... When you're a God Who do you pray to?

Stuck
Start. Go. I am one way, but now, also another. Two separate identities both compelling and seductive. Slide. Run. How can both so equally demand the most honest part of me? Is my inconstancy something tangible, or the result of a post taught structure telling me right from wrong? Twirl. Lunge. I see them both One luring with a smile, a toss of hair. The other charming with eyes so heavy, but bright. Each pulling my focus and stealing my breath. Without a sound or whisper of words. Bend. Twist. Delicate and quirky, yet confident, she understands and listens to the hum inside me; holding my heart while still falling into my arms. Whimsical and strong, he picks me up in a rush like a wild wind and frees my mind. Then with a full, gentle touch calms me. Stills me. Blink. Fall. What can I do? Question everything I feel or have ever felt? Ever known? They shake my every nerve, Sending tremors to my spine. Then suddenly I know. Fantasy. Reality. It's him. And that's ok.

It's Him
There are many different kinds of it. Mine is odd. It's verbal ...but not. Emotional ...but not. Odd because I've been on that literary cusp, That moment of stillness right before a phrase feathers down from my mouth with gentle harmony. But this time something stops me. Fear? Anxiety? Apprehension. I have everything I want to say. It's there waiting for me to father it, but all I can utter are shallow breaths. It's right... there. But i'm caught in a stalemate with myself Odd that my heart knows how and when to react. Like a beacon, the other calls to mine. Like a compas, points a direct line commanding that I follow it. it guides me... there. I rest immobile, unsure of how I feel. Unable to act one way or the other. My head, my heart. Two loyal parts of a whole. They speak tirelessly in each ear, hoping to overcome the other instead of reaching compromise. This is limbo.

Limbo (My head, my heart)
These feelings are new One moment here then not Hello my new friend Your kindness surrounds Busy, happy and present Hello my good friend Lips purse on my cheeck Suddenly my world is changed Hello my sweet friend My eyes flutter wild You race when our hands touch slow Now I know you live It's been awhile Once numbed now brimming with hope Hello my old friend
