A desire to write
An intention to create
But all that's there is the drive
And I'm left with nothing but a blank brain
                       Strained to produce something
                                                   Anything at all
VinceV Jan 3
On a day long past
Your art moved me more than any other
But what I have found
Are the plagiarized works of your idols
Themes and ideas
Countless words and images and thoughts
All of them stolen
I say
As if we all don't steal

The ground, covered in dirt and my hair
Soon it filled with my own salt, as I lie
Collapsed
Imploded
Mourning

I had promised to write about you
Something full of love and admiration
Something I can no longer write
I took just one breath
And now I can't remember what it was I wanted to write

I dreaded that this day would come
And now that it's here
I couldn't ask for anything more

The story was one page long
They tell me "I read the first few words"
Falsely impassioned
As if they read any of it at all

Together
We drive there
Warm

There
Cold
There
Warm again
There
Cold again
There
Warm again

Together
We drive back
Cold, now and forever
Nothing more to be said.

Just had to make sure I wasn't only writing about love and heartbreak.
