When a lack thereof
is all my inspiration
I begin to wonder what on
earth
I would write about
if I simply
had
what I want.
maybe we're just doomed
to write about sadness
and to be sad when we can't write.
maybe I should just figure a way
to be happy
when everything around me
dies.
This battle is an ebb and flow for me. Sometimes I do push through and write about happy things, but in general writing comes easier when the weight of the world is on my shoulders.

A B Perales
The spells I cast
have been achieved
by others.

Leave me to
my dullest needle.
This sting only
numbs the pain.

Candle light improves
my perception.
Silhouettes live out
their time in all
dimensions.

Time carries itself
upon the
wings of memories.

I only try and make
sense to me.

Loving and Leaving
are old reissued
beginnings in
my world.
Freedoms momentarily,
forever has never
been longer than
a year.

She promised me
almost everything,
and yet the
Dragon won my
heart.

I did not look
up as she walked
herself out.

I watched time
watching me
and made
no effort
to change it.
