Nonwriter's block

I am not a writer
So I am not obliged to write...

 But don't I have enough words?
Or is it just some fright?

I once wrote because it was all breezy...
It felt homely and so nice and cozy.

 And just when you got very comfortable writing...
The demons of half-rhyme came all haunting.

 All confused, stuck between hell and hill...
What should I write next? The time there stood still.

 I kept thinking how do I overcome this bump?
And that's when I realized, In this lush rainforest...I was looking for a stump. 

 I'll always be a nonwriter...With nothing much to write.
In your dark and stormy way, just write anything and find your light.

Whatever! Black is always black and grey is grey!!

It is the art of finding beauty in the imperfections of life and appreciating the changes that are happening. With the current situation that has affected the world, it would make us happier if we lived life the wabi sabi way. Sturmfrei – This German word literally translates to storm-free. But in reality, it has quite a different meaning. Sturmfrei is the freedom of being alone. Remember, as a child when you would get a day alone at home when your parents had gone out. That feeling, where you had the hou...

Longing

In the quiet of the night, I search for my calling. Longing for a purpose, my heart keeps on falling. Striving a dream that seems forever out of reach. Yearning for that tricky truth, I strain to teach. Aching to achieve, what has yet to be attained. Longing for a liking, that can never be regained. Yearning for the ties with someone I'll never meet. Longing for a destiny that feels so obsolete. Like a ship lost at sea, I keep looking for a solid ground. Looking for answers, that may never be found. I search within, a longing deep inside my soul. Hoping for a purpose that will make me whole.
