Notice of absence from NinjaGirl
Hi everyone! I have been gone for a while, I don’t know if any of you all have noticed, but I apologize for not leaving a notice anyway. I will be gone for a while. I am not done writing poetry, and I have not given up. But I will be away for some time. I expect to return around 2028. Not sure if any of you guys will see this, but thank you for reading my poetry. Please do not worry, I will be okay! I look forward to returning!

They seeped and creeped into my bones

Over several nights days weeks I don't remember

Crawling slithering they grasped my heart

Stole my brain and wrung it all out

Dry of all ideas of all juices of all sentiment

I am no longer sentient it stole everything

They stole everything I can't write the poems anymore

The rhymes I haven't worked out added up created

Dreamt of I don't think I'm a poet anymore

It was robbed of me and now all I have is a jumble

Of letters I try and straighten out into words

Don't leave me letters, don't leave me

    Tangled letters so fitting a title. A metaphor well painted in words stolen by thieves insidious invasion. When the muse is taken and only remnants of letters are left. A fave

      Thank you! I got worried the title could be too tough to decipher so I'm glad to see this is not the case. Thanks again for reading!

        🥷, this takes me to those moments where the words just won’t come…where something that used to flow suddenly feels blocked or taken. That kind of silence can be loud in its own way, and you captured that. Really well done, my dear friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

          This is really nicely written. The battle of the poetic inspiration. Nicely done.
