discontent

by Kimberly Bare

these words
no longer please me

searching, ever searching...

i know not what i seek
i only know my head, heart, hands
are empty

My best suggestion Kimberly is don't force poetry. In time an idea will come to you...if it was meant to. Open your mind to what's troubling you, what's moving you, what's making you happy, what's giving you passion. Also...read read read! A novel, others' poetry, even the newspaper will sometime spark an idea. Go out and experience new things, interact with other people, especially your friends. There's a poem on my personal website, link on my homepage here at Pathetic, in the Poetry section, under Outside Influences by Charles Bukowski titled "so you want to be a writer." It may hold some addtional wisdom for you in your current state of mind. Good luck! :o)
