inspired

or rather a lack of it.

finding inspiration

is like finding gold

you either strike it rich,

or you end up in the cold.

 

love is like that too,

something you can give,

and take,

but nothing you can hold.

 

ours was golden,

until it was stolen,

by time,

and i watched the sparkle die.

 

the pain was nearly too much to bear,

we both knew that we had nothing to fear,

but continuously, vacously,

with empty words and stares,

 

we pledged ourselves anew,

to stay to each other, true.

and to that one special girl, three words.

i love you.

This was a very good write. Although "I love you" works, you have left the door open for so many other inspiring three word phrases. For example, "you inspire me" would work...just figuring since the title is, "Inspired." Good job!

this is great work, and i definitely don't think it's a lack of inspiration. that last stanza's the best, in my opinion, but, like our Angel of Death here, those last three words could have been greater. other than that good job
