Frozen.

Stuck.

Words failing to form.

A story too long to focus on.

Suddenly,

A butterfly thought.

Fluttering around before landing on a new paper.

The world fallen silent.

The faint scratch of a pencil fills the air.

"Sorry"

Short.

Poigniant.

A new begining.

Ice melts away.

Finally.

I am free to write.

Ace Dagger

I am a military child, and have been all of my life. A student, I believe that life is a school where the lessons never stop coming and there is never a wrong or bad question. Poetry is something I struggle to force out but can write a mean slam poem from free thoughts and an open sheet of paper. Your mind is a place where you know more than you can imagine be it from this life or one you once lived in the past, but either way there is a connection and you can always put some of that in writing. Also a writer, I write short stories and am working on various books.
