Writers block

     Writing has become lost to me, and I don't have an answer as to why? It's not for lack of trying, as I have burned through gallons of midnight oil but with little or no success. There are times when I ask myself why more people don't read my work, and why do I try to keep putting it out there to lay dormant and unread? I often thought if I didn't have writing I would be a lost soul never really too concerned that I would someday hang up my spurs and go quietly into the light.

     Writing to me is like a bowl of mom's chicken soup, it can cure anything that is ailing me, soothe my nerves and make everything seem better. I never thought the day would come when the words wouldn't, but it appears that day has arrived, and I am as lost as I have ever been. Will the words come back? Will my memories and my thoughts once again entwine creating stories that give my readers the emotions they haven't felt in a long time? I can only hope they do, that something awakens the writer in me and my words once again flow like sand through an hourglass.
