I have spent a long time away
from my primary form of expression.
I abandoned it, I abandoned my 'baby',
I abandoned myself, the words that once defined me.
So I felt undefined.
I had lost sight who I was,
just living day by day and thinking only when I had to think.
Why?
I ran out of ideas?
No!
I had inspiration everywhere, an idea for a poem lurking in every corner.
But, I wasn't thinking, I got absorbed into things that were less important to me.
And as I write this poem, I realize
it was stupid, I was stupid!
I am glad to be hearing the keys on the keyboard bounce up and down with excitement.
I absolutely adore that sound.
I have spent a long time away
from my primary form of expression.
Poetry . . .
now I have returned and I feel redefined.

welcome back.
but this is less poetry, and more diary entry to me. i dont mean to offend. ill take a look at another.

It's silly to stifle yourself, when writing instead can heal you from the inside out, don't deprive yourself any longer.

You are writing in a stream of conscience. Letting your thoughts flow. It seems to be a part of you. Don't put it away for so long. Thanks!

i'd just like to say welcome back, writing, to some is spirituality. and it's so easy to get caught up in worldly ways. if you let it, life will get in the way of everything else.

i know the feeling. i do like the last line, but two honest this feels too straightforward. it's just telling and isn't very poetic. you obviously feel what you've written and that's a great strt but i think it needs a bit of work to be a good poem in it's own right.
