Empty Inkwell

by SymphonyOfSilence

I must create. Another, another. Another. Another! My pen has run dry, The inkwell runs from its pointed tip, Like two magnets poled the same, They detest to touch. Pages covered, yet barren. I cannot stop. This empty inkwell keeps me alive... Though I cannot say, It lets me live.

Notes

When your passion becomes sustenance, you risk your passion turning to obligation, till your well runs dry. Now to find a way to refill.
