wistful

this is a poem I wrote in the summer of 99

To chase my muse

to catch her,

to hold on with all the strength my soul can surrender.

 

but I am lazy,

careless,

left with only a coffee stained desk

and a bent paperclip I used to clean my fingernails.

I totally get this poem. So many times I think I could really do something amazing and creative and I get good ideas....I just kinda....never make it happen....It's awful to think of all the beautiful things we could be missing out on because people didn't use and develop their talents. How much better we could be if we would only commit ourselves to the dream.
Good job.

Loved the beginning line..
the 2nd line painted a fun & vivid
look at wistful longing to keep up
with your muse..
Loved it

wistful is right. this poem i think shows exactly how many of us are: always dreaming but not doing anything to make the dream a reality. cool
