Grr....Oh Crap

One moment

It's there

Only to disappear

Into thin air

Like it never existed.

 

Frantically

You search

Every nook and cranny

Without success.

 

As

Some thief had broken in

And stole it

While you were distracted

by something else.

 

Only pray and hope

One day

It'll come back

That lost thought.

We lose things, thoughts etc. always hoping they are just around the corner and sometimes they are. Let's hope for that.

Thank you, Icelandicblue. It's a real pain, when you'r writing, and your thought disappear, never to return.

[icelandicblue]

That's why I leave snippets of thoughts on the notebook of my phone. ; )

Got I tons of abandoned poems, in my writing workbooks, I'll never return to. Poor orphans.

[icelandicblue]

You should string a bunch of them together and see what you get. It would be fascinating and fun!

[therisa]

Or too painful to read. Many of these orphans are, from a time of deep pain, or a different mind set, which I have moved on.
