The need in me
to spew forth my thoughts
is undeniable
My fingers are drawn
to the keyboard
searching for that release
I’m the junkie
twitching
for his next fix
I’m the drunkard
looking for his next drink
I’m the lover
yearning for the touch
of your skin
I long
to watch the letters
flow across the screen
as I chase
the cursor
The cursor is
mocking
me today
My thoughts will not
emerge upon the page
Today
the thirst will
remain

How can I not praise what is beautiful and inspired??? Or not want to share it with my followers?? Isn’t that what we are supposed to do for our followers?? I didn’t get the manual from WordPress! LOL!
