Nobody


I am no longer the same.

I no longer write I don’t know why. I keep them in my head and afraid to share. When I put down some words they no longer seem connected. I remember how I could just pour out my feelings and thoughts onto a piece of paper and feel relieved. Is it some kind of brain muscle that I have deteriorated?  It certainly makes me feel mentally constipated.

Or is it because I have become more heartless? I would read about some disaster here and there and wouldn’t think much. Maybe I have reached that age of desensitization: to know just enough to accept the unacceptable as norms. I try to write a poem: it sounds as interesting as some ear wax. Who in the world is going to read that?

Without anything more entertaining to offer, here I am bullpooping for no inherent purposes. Because I miss my readers, and I miss that one time when I could be so much more passionate and interesting.

  1. I feel you, bro! Some time I work with melodies to give me a different vibe and approach to write. I haven't been able to complete anything since July because school takes up most of my time now.
    I think the best way to deal with this is just to sit down and push yourself, set a deadline and commit your time to writing. I usually plan this ahead when I know I have a break coming.
    Just remember your feelings when words come easy and also when words come hard. And there's nothing wrong with either, man. Gotta find a way to keep moving forward ;)
