last actual bit of something good i wrote before the block.

Alyssa
Colorful bits of image flood my mind but I can not find the words
I felt so empty for days and after waiting for inspiration nothing came
Now I realize, sometimes, you must come to it.
It's in the childs hand has she raises the dandelion telling me to make a wish
And blow all the new ones into the day
I sat outside for a bit on the swing set and watched her play, staining her dress but paying no mind
And a humbling came over me for no reason I can put
I felt inferior to this small, helpless child with baby blue eyes and tangled blonde hair
When I looked at other things I still felt it
The curious wonder but sadness of such a pretty world
And for a moment I'd seperated myself from my surroundings, felt as if I didn't belong in the picture
That something so twisted and so imperfect as I, did not belong in a world of innocence
And then I realized I'd felt that way before, and that was me either submitting to the demons
Or it could have just been that I was being absolutely naive.

^I agree. You're an awesome writer. I love the imagery and your choice of words. The only problem is the spelling (naive, dandelion). But I mean, WOW. Great job!! biggrin.gif
