---Need help finding insperation!

I really want to write more poetry but I can't seem to get inspired or think of anything to write about. I've tried reading other poetry and things but its not working...any tips???

I'm haveing the same problem. im trying to get advise to. i have no idea what to do to get inspired i mean i cant be loved or fall in love and i cant get my heart broken either. well when you get tips do u mind sharing them with me??

ahh, lol that's just a normal case of writers block, it happens all the time. Frankly, when that happens to me I just hope for it to pass. In the mean time though, I would listen to alot of music, or watch movies like The Notebook (sorry i had to use it as an example, it's like the best one out there) Something that triggers your emotion or tells a good story to you that you can connect to... Or randomly read a few pages of a book, pick out your favourite words and see if you can't find a way to use one of those words. (make sure its a complex word, it'll get your mind brainstorming better).. If all else fails, get a pen and paper and write down anythign at all, everything that comes toyour mind and dont stop writing. even if it's just writing like 'blahblah i dont know what to write, i have writers block and im frusterated, stupid pencil' or whatever, something should come.... If still no success...than go to sleep and dream a bit lol. Those are the only ideas I have to help you, Good luck to you both though!

steph's right.
You just need to do things that could work out some emotion, listen to some music, do some arobics, anything that you can think of.
It will pass.

you shouldnt have to look for inspiration, your inspiration comes from inside. but if you cant think of any thing try to get inspiration from the world around you. everything is inspirational. good luck!!! jess xxxxx

I agree, inspiration comes from inside. From the emotions that you feel. If you still can't try listening to music or just looking outside.

For me, i wait for a poem to come to me

Past experance! .....easy.... just right how you feel, write what you have gone through

maybe if you look on the internet on google.com or something and search for poems youll find great inspiration thats where i get mine!
