Temporary Setbacks

Temporary Setbacks

A Story by silentwriter180



A mutual song writer/poet just brought up an interesting thought that is extremely resonating. The fact that he wrote very few songs last year compared to previous years. This year, I only wrote one or two, whereas, the year before, the words poured out. My heart just wasn't in it. Hoping this next year is better in many ways, and I can write spiritually again.

Many of my contacts on this site think I am a prolific writer. I am not. I post stuff written years ago and occasionally come up with a new poem. I too go through really dry spells where the words won't flow. What I have learned is that you can't force the situation. You need to be patient. Those thoughts and words will come when they are ready and not before. I think it is quite common for writers to experience this. You and your friend are in good company.
