Description Sometimes, I think, or maybe
fancy is the right word - that
I can feel you thinking

about me.

Those days
when all the songs I hear sing
in those long-gone voices of
two kids who knew more about feeling

than living.

Nights when "we" is a weight
on my stomach, that place
right at the top. Where you would rest your
head, stare into my eyes, hand
on my shoulder, touch me inside

and out.

Years when you never
came to mind. Or so I told myself, pushing
down dreams where you left me again

and again.

Sometimes I think, or maybe
fancy -

sometimes.

I love it, and I understand the block issues. Until last week it had been about 3 years since I had written anything of substance (and, for that matter, about 3 years since I logged into dA). Nice to see you're still here. I always enjoyed your writing.

Lol... you know I always think something could be improved! And I am more than a little out of practice. Glad you liked it, sweetheart, I've missed you...

I can't help thinking it's ideally suited for a blues-riff

This is good stuff Jen. Really nice. It's not fragile at all. It's quite strong. Keep it up please!

Not the poem so much as ME. I'm afraid if I lay a finger on it, the block's going to come back! Paranoia, much?

For the first one in nearly 3 years, if you think you've lost anything... sounds like you've still got at least some of it.

Which reminds me it's been well over a year since I did any poetry myself... going on 2 years since I did a full fleshed out poem... Suppose I should do a little writing to see if my own wells haven't run dry...

I honestly thought it was gone, for good. The ideas never stopped, I just couldn't seem to put them on paper. I'm not sure there's a feeling much worse than that.

Thank you so much, neekers...
