that I have become so uninspired

my inspiration has fled

or maybe it is I

that I can no longer feel

feel the words flow through me

my emotions were my muse

and though they are still around

and intense, I do not feel

feel the urge to write

to write the words as I

wrote so often for fear of

speaking them, for now I feel

feel the urge to say what I feel

to speak the words that I wish

and not to feel that fear any more

or maybe its the sense of complete

understanding and acceptance

Author's Note: this is the first poem I've written in over a year, and I know its not one of my best works, it is one that came to me as I just sat down and wrote.
