I have been writing poetry since I was a young girl and have a few poems published and have participated in a few Spoken Word poetry cafe's and I still offer my insight from time to time on others' pieces. I haven't been writing a lot lately and feel that my writer's block will just get worse and worse if I don't try to come out of it.. so yesterday I was sitting and thinking... and I wrote a few lines that I felt were meaningful and beautiful... I just haven't finished it yet.. but just tell me what you think so far. The following is untitled and unfinished. Pierce my life-giver Watch as the light slivers From the irises of my sight None too bright It's not right I know Blood soaks what hides My nudity Not that it suited me No more longevity As I breathe heavily. Untitled & unfinished

Nice one. How about rephrasing the lines... "None too bright. It's not right I know" to : "...None too bright I know it's not right" In this way, your poem would rhyme well, just like this one I wrote which was just for fun though: Should you wish to fart To the open you should dart So people won't start Having problems with their heart

Your lines are full of emotion and spirit and passion. Just let the words flow from your mind to the written form. I think you have what it takes. I am also a lover and writer of poetry . Just follow your heart and the poetry will follow.
