You play guitar NB??
Dammitt, why are you married!
Yes, I'm learning how to play. I've been playing for about 9 months or so.
Psychic - Very cool. I'll see if I can make that work. I'm sure I won't have the same flow that you have, but I'll give it a run. Keep in touch with what you work out. I'm anxious to hear it.

Lost inside my sick head
I live for you but I'm not alive
Take my hand before I kill
Still love you, I still burn
Great suffering leads to great art. It is through pain and suffering we learn and grow. Always helps to get it out. You're lucky you're a poet.
The artist's life is life.
I used to store it all inside. It's just now coming out within the past year...stuff from a decade ago.

Thank you. Basically, the one that started all of this tore up all the poems I wrote her...and I never wrote after that...not until about a year ago. It took me a long time to allow that part of myself out again, as it was stomped on before and made to feel worthless. Oh well, I have a lot of nice writing material now

Seriously, people who destroy poetry should
be shot. My ex burned all of my poetry and
short stories I had been writing since 15
when I left him :(
I know how you feel. I went over to pick up what was left of my belongings and she stood right in front of me and tore up all the art I drew...and poems I wrote. All in front of my face. If you want to be cruel and break my heart, fine, but don't destroy my spirit. That did, for a while. It was devastating..as I'm sure yours was as well. :(

Yes. You know, out of everything he did to me
including threatening my life...THAT was the most
shocking and hurtful thing of all, and Im sure he knew
it would be because he knows how I value those things so much.
Very true. I'd hate to be pressured to come up with stuff. It can't be forced.
That's what is so impressive about Eddie's and artist's material.
eden-exactly. Exactly!

Thats beautiful NB...
Good luck on that journey.
Because at the end of it is love and peace of mind if you do it right.

Once i started about ten years ago, I couldn't stop. I found out about "thoughts arriving like butterflies" while writing my "Sonata of the Springs"
I only write when I'm inspired. It's one of the benefits of being an amateur. Eddie doesn't have that luxury
