A block in the mind

A wall blocking all creativity

A blockage interfering one's thoughts

A writer of soul and passion

A holder of the pen that creates

A person with a unique way of combining words

A blocked writer...

▪-▪

My thoughts tormenting me
Thinking of the worst to come
How long until I fall apart
Slowly losing myself
Discarding my hopes and dreams
Succumbing to the numbness
My worst fears tearing me apart
Soul crushed and mind bruised
Pondering on what I should do
Stuck in the void that is my mind

Wandering thoughts to pass the time
▪-▪

Thought of but never spoken
Hushed voice losing focus
Thinking back to the words not said
The effect of those words whether good or bad
They were meant to be heard and never forgotten
Speak your truth and voice your concerns
Not many get another chance to be heard
Lift your head, face your fears, and let your conscience set you free
Speak those unspoken words...
▪-▪

A soul without a goal

A life with no ambitions

A vessel missing it's purpose

A relationship without communication

A lock with no key

A story missing the start

A pistol without bullets

A body with no heart

▪-▪

Rising from the depths
Reclaiming the light once lost
Understanding my past mistakes
Unveiling my darkest thoughts
Leaving past grudges behind
Leaping towards opportunities
Believing in my destiny
Blooming into a new future
▪-▪

New beginnings
Another journey
More paths to take
Many decisions to decide
Unlimited opportunities waiting

For others a new start
New lives being born
Families coming together
Rekindling old flames
Further into the future
▪-▪

Here I am a blank canvas
Losing all of my color and ambitions
Without a thought of who I wish to be

A blank canvas
At the world's disposal
Ready to be painted with experience

Writing from soul to paper
Paper to draft
From draft to hp
Hello poetry to you

Keep it alive this soul of mine
Write and there will always be someone to read
Here I am writing to thee
▪-▪

Waking up coughing
Not breathing
Throat closing
Choking as I gasped for air
Here I am again...
Another restless night
Not being able to breathe
Just thankful that I'm still here
•-•

I feel you fading away
Your presence drifting further away from me
Leaving a void behind where you used to be
Reminiscing about all of our time together
Wondering how we've strayed from one another
Losing hope that we could ever get back the time we lost
Never saying the words that I really wanted to tell you
I felt you fade away
●-●

Feet hurting but it will all be worth it
Telling white lies because I refuse to forfeit
Not ashamed of what I've done, we're all imperfect
Saving up cash for my family so they can be sorted
I hope this rhyme will be easy for you to interpret
Started being selfish because I deserve it
●-●

Gentle whispers traveling in the wind, singing the same song
Fears fading into dust and time is fleeting
Tears are being wiped away and the pain still remains
Trying to patch up old wounds, she cries throughout the night
Wiping her eyes she sheds more tears from deeper emotions
Eyes red from wiping, she can finally rest in peace

The cold surrounds me

Sleeping alone in the cold without warmth by my side

The cold surrounds me

The space to my right, cold and empty

The cold surrounds me

Moving closer to the space on my right and leaving another cold gap to my left

The cold surrounds me

Thinking about the warmth that could one day fill that space

The warmth smothers me

Those thoughts fade away as I'm reminded of the cold that awaits me

The cold surrounds me

My heart being just as cold, guarded with walls knowing that warmth will never have me

The cold surrounds me again

Alone I remained and always been, as I shuddered in the cold

The cold forever surrounds me

I yearned for warmth but could never attain it for I was meant to be alone

I surrendered to the cold

●-●

I'm ashamed of it and hide my true face
It just won't go away and haunts my very eyes in every mirror
I know without them; I would be truly beautiful, but I'm stuck with it
It gets worse and makes me lose confidence
People stare and whisper about it as if i can't hear them
•-•

Words have a lot of combinations
Combinations that can be translated differently
A compliment could turn into an insult
Words hurt but only mentally

Conversations seem like routines
Questions racing through my mind
The answers making me more anxious
Overthinking the scenarios that could cost me a friend...
