One Patiently Waits 

No idea where to start 
Had I left it too long 
Heart once flowed
Where did I go wrong 

It seemed easier then 
Knowing what to say
I remembered when 
Words flowed each day

How could I describe
If hanging between 
I can be plain to see
Yet my feelings unseen

The awkward pauses
Nothing translates
My days will come 
As one patiently waits 

If being transparent
By means of light
Return me the shine
Giving reason to write

Alone With My Thoughts

Here I was questioning
Closed in a lonely night
My mind contemplating
Before I began to write

Why was it I pondered
Inspiration disappeared
A mind wanting to write
It is what I had feared

Knowing I am capable
Shadows float wistfully
Still sat here pondering
What is wrong with me

In writing this all down
With aching heart to try
Inspiration had left me
I’m left to ponder why

Pensive was the mood
Of sadly searching you
I know not the reasons
My heart was left blue

It was never goodbyes
Only a fading gradually
Alone with my thoughts
Pondering where is he
