Where has my inspiration gone?

Drifted away with the wind

without a return to sender

Some time ago, but not so long ago

I had a name

I was somebody

Life was good, life was fine

Some time ago, but not so long ago

I had a dream

To become great

Inspiring souls of the world

to be all they could be

Until that world

up and turned on me.

Where has my spirit gone?

Lost in the melody of a song

Hidden in the mural painted in the air

And I don’t know where

to find it.

~

And folks say

life is fine

This poem is me. It’s like you wrote from my soul because there was a time I felt this way, my life and me retreated in disarray. But dare I lay down and just be defeated, I refuse to be left feeling cheated. I cried, prayed and he gave me a muse, many to be honest. Now, I’m back. Thank you Terry O’Neal.

Thank you, Quanda. Yes, we all have our moments but the great thing about it is that we come back even stronger than we were before. HE didn’t bring us this far…(you know the rest). The devil is a liar!

Write ON!
Be Blessed*

Warmly,
