Every time I sit down to write, I hear something inside. It tells me words. It tells me rhymes. I listen.
But I can’t seem to repeat. I’m just staring vacantly.
Somewhere along the way, my inspiration left this place.
Creativity has become on demand. A project. A quote. Something that needs to have meaning, to have reason. Not for fun. Not for me.
For you.
For someone else.
I think I’ll keep it all inside for awhile. Maybe when I hear sweet things whispered to me, I’ll find a way to let things flow. Until then, I’ll stare vacantly, not saying a word. And let the things I deserve reach my skin.

Quote reblogged fromI have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.Mary Shelley, Frankenstein (via her0inchic)

I dreamt that you had been long passed away somewhere in the forever-gray backing of my mind. I’d write you postcards everywhere I went. My favorite was from the Castle in Ireland that your ancestors built. You’re why I went there. I wrote ‘Wish you were here’ on the back of a postcard and I mailed it to you.
I answered my phone and it was the man who lives at the house now. He said in a bewildered and stern voice ‘you know this person hasn’t lived here in several years, right?’
“6 years actually”
‘…….’
‘….then why do you keep sending letters here?’
“Because it’s the house my wife and I were married in. And every time I miss her, I write her a letter and send it to that house hoping that somehow she’d reach into the mailbox and take it wherever she is.”
There was a long silence. And then the dial tone.

Quote reblogged fromThe person in life that you will always be with the most, is yourself. Because even when you are with others, you are still with yourself, too! When you wake up in the morning, you are with yourself, laying in bed at night you are with yourself, walking down the street in the sunlight you are with yourself. What kind of person do you want to walk down the street with? What kind of person do you want to wake up in the morning with? What kind of person do you want to see at the end of the day before you fall asleep? Because that person is yourself, and it’s your responsibility to be that person you want to be with. I know I want to spend my life with a person who knows how to let things go, who’s not full of hate, who’s able to smile and be carefree. So that’s who I have to be.C. JoyBell C.
