ALMOST....

by Joan Serratelli

Almost died
(but ALMOST
doesn't count)
I'm better now being
trying to write
been horridly blocked

I'm sick
of being sick
it's time
to write

Even if it's bad
it's time
to join the living
and celebrate

I have more respect
for life
I have no answers
I'm back from hell
It was a long, strange journey
but I'm back
and the worst is behind me

It's time to live

I was wondering where you had gone to. Nice to have you back. I too have been blocked lately, though more distracted with life's responsibilities, family matters, and other hobbies. You're right though, write abyways, and if you're not confident about a piece, you don't have to show it to anyone.
