Thoughts on an Empty Day

by aaron c s   Sep 22, 2005


As my heart fails to find what to write,
My will, my ambition no longer strives to fight.
I sit here, with thoughts through my mind,
The answers not clear, so hard to find.
No more clarity in what one thinks,
But still able to write as a scribe in ink.
The pondering leads to empty stillness,
Longing for one thought, but end up thoughtless!
In the world today one walks alone,
Searching, wondering when they'll take the throne!
And the empty thoughts make them blank,
Living and dying for ones own sake.
As one lives in this world of ours,
No longer their heart, no longer their mind, but their wants are what empowers.
As my thoughts come to an end,
I have one message I'd like to send.
Do not only listen to your mind,
For the heart is what makes you kind.
Do not only listen to you heart,
For the mind is what sets you apart.

    I can relate to this in a lot of ways.Those empty days, days the writing don't come, or just depressive gray days.I love the title and the throne line-good stuff.The rhyme scheme isn't perfect but it flows smoothly enough to not matter.Any writer, dreamer, loner would be touched by this.Although I'm not sure I care for the end sentiments-Too often mind and heart conflict,the mind is indeed important, but now that I'm older(&wiser-ha-ha!)I've realized that if you listen to and follow your heart it will never lead you wrong.Anyway, keep writing, your talent will only grow.Good job here, if a bit ambiguous.
