Why do I not feel like writing
why do I feel like the me that wants to write is over
somewhere
maybe I’m tired
maybe I don’t know how to
anymore
maybe I just feel like the person who used to like writing
just isn’t here anymore
what do I write about nature
I’ve done that a lot before
do I try writing about similar things again
il probably end up writing the same kind of thing
and what’s the point of writing if I’m just going to feel disconnected from what I’m writing
and I feel distant
what’s the point
I don’t know
anymore

When the muse goes on vacation there is the question of what can we write about. Don't worry she will be back before you know it. Nicely done
Thankyou .. ))
Welcome
Writers block. We all know it well. You will find your spark again, I am sure of it.
Thankyou .. I have tried a few a few weeks ago but I couldn’t feel connected enoigh to what I was writing and I just felt distant so I kind of sometimes don’t see the point of doing that . And yeah sometimes I’m simply stuck don’t know what to write about .. or even feel like I just can’t that well anymore
Caring Dove, this is quiet vulnerability. The questions loop naturally…no forced drama, just truth. “maybe I don’t know how to / anymore” feels like the center of it. And closing on “anymore” lets the uncertainty breathe. Honest and brave, as always, my dear friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛
Thankyou .. I feel I am a honest person , yes .. thanks for the kind words . I tried writing a poem few weeks back , just didn’t feel I could get much from writing and I felt distant .
Most welcome, my friend. I can tell you are, that very much comes through in your writing. Self-reflective, aware, compassionate, and honest. All of those come through your writing. Sorry to hear dissociation was affecting your writing, but I certainly understand the reality of that. Mental health, right? It both fuels and stalls. The same is true for me. Anywho, well done, my friend. I really appreciate your poetry and getting to engage in conversation too. 😊
It will come back Yellow Rose, it does happen to all sometimes.
Andy
Thankyou
You must write,
You must record,
You must preserve,
Lose not heart,
It is a sacred act,
Never give up,
Best of luck !
Thankyou for the kind words
