Boredom

Ideas flood my mind,
Yet i do not put pen to paper,
The prose i can not find,
My life is lacking flavor.

My laptop gathers dust,
And i can feel my soul taper,
I have lost all trust,
Searching for my savior.

A forcefield transparent,
Yet firm.
Pushed me down a turrent,
And makes me squirm.

I have done nothing today,
Nothing but live in my boredom.

I "looked" below ~ they saw this as "writer's block"... I took this one in another direction. So many people DO their day thoughtlessly and without "wanting" to do or be there. Bored out-of-their-minds with their versions of "The NOTHING" - 'til they day/night dream of even simple, little things and sometimes simply LIFE-CHANGING moments. Few make a living doing what they would have done for free - but were seldom asked.

Just wondering "Pushed me down a turrent or a current"? is turrent a word?

I was bored today - just now - and the beautiful rhyme on point and melodic poem of yours jump started my day. "squirm..followed by boredom" ended your poem in a flawless fashion.

Well you definitely did write this piece today.. hehe. So lemme guess you're writing about the "writer's block" and many reasons behind it. As an artist, I dig that feeling. It's true, sometimes the soul rests so uninspired that you cannot hold a pen for your thoughts.

Loved your piece. God Bless

"boredom" is not really a word that is in my vocabulary....but i have to say that when i go long periods without writing...i start to feel really antsy to begin again...you portray well the frustration here of having writers block.
