I haven’t written in two days

Waiting on the words to come my way

Is there something that I really got to say?

No there's no need for you to stay.

Can’t force the words out of me

All that I have left is what you see

Thanks for the read!

    some days the muse sings and others she hides... you heard her whispers

  • It's okay, maybe you need this break to come back even better. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️

    A familiar feeling. Sometimes simple silence can fill in the void and give new ideas. Great poem, Emily!

    You wrote something similar to me. A few days ago, I had nothing to carve si I wrote a void. You can read it. It says, "A poet can be empty too"

    The words will come to you eventually. You are a pro Emily. Hang in there.

    Time for something else...like a trip to get ice cream or get your nails done. Listen to conversations and get inspiration out of the blue.

    Been there more times than I can count. Sometimes you just have to set it aside for a little bit. Something will strike you when you’re not stressing about it. 🤗👍
