Inspiration

As I worked out at the gym today I ran through ideas that I had for my blog. I've had a pretty busy week, well actually a pretty busy month. I've visited Asheville, Charleston, SC and West Virginia twice. On Monday I head out for PA to visit my family. I was thinking about doing a blog about family today but just couldn't find the inspiration or the words to write. I might not to get to write tomorrow because today starts packing extravaganza.

Once I thought about it I realized that I wanted to do something different. Recently I've met someone (who's already been mentioned before). He has reopened that creative side of me that I thought was gone, quite possibly with all my teen angst. But then I realized that my blog is a form of creativity. The words are still here, and so are the ideas... I just needed the inspiration and support to write them down.

I want to thank Matt for that.

So, today instead of putting something new up on my blog I'm putting a poem up. It's a poem that I wrote some time ago but it means a lot to me and is one of my favorites. I've never titled it so it is just called untitled #1

odysseys of the mind

perplex me so

questions wanting to be asked

where are the words i am longing for

to phrase it just right

would be oh so beautiful

but to slip and lose the rhyme

causes pain to the page

that my pen has seized

flowing like a river

the pain is decreased

as i change, censor and say goodbye

to my original

where the words came unknowing

of what would happen

if i scribed them to this sheet
