Help! Is there suck thing as writer's block being caused by being in love???? OK, so maybe not caused by..but here's my problem:
I sit down and write a stanza or two - I'm really feeling it... and then nothing. I have all these thoughts and emotions bottled up, but they won't come out... I start to think that it's because I don't want to do an unjustice to my feelings?..... Or perhaps I haven't the words for accurate description. When I write about something/someone else, I don't have this issue so much. I know that everyday life is an issue/obstacle to getting anything written down, but even when i take my time... nada.

Anybody else feel this way? Thanks :)
 
Re:love's lost lyrics

Firegoddess- you might try writing about your confusion/dilemna over writing itself. If may not turn into poetry, but may help clarify it for you.

You'll get there! :)
 
Congratulations. On being in love, I mean. For better or worse, there's nothing like it.

I think you're right about one thing. It's a blizzard of emotions, and it's pretty hard to describe. Personally, I almost never try to write a poem about something that I'm in the middle of experiencing. Be it love, sorrow, anger, sex, frisbee golf... I wait until it is behind me, and I can look back at it.
 
i find the exact opposite happens to me, if im not seeing someone or in love its pretty hard for me write
 
Just journal it man, just go

I can't write I
can't fucking
write I
don't know what the fuck is
wrong with me it's like
I've got all these feelings bottled up

(then you imagine you're sitting in a chair in your shrink's office [or even someone else's shrink's office if you don't have a personal shrink with a sign on his door that says:

BY APPOINTMENT TO FIREGODDESS76 HER HEIRS AND SUCCESSORS
)

SHRINK: what feelings . . . tell me about them

FIRE: feelings, like . . . you know . . . feelings

SHRINK: what feelings . . . tell me about them

FIRE: well . . . love feelings . . . or . . . is it hate? . . . no .. .no . . . not hate

SHRINK: if not hate what

FIRE: love

SHRINK: Love?

FIRE: yeah

and before you know it a little alarm will go tinkle and he or she will say:

sorry--time's up--Miss Crunt will give you another appointment.

. . . till next time . . . byeeeee

and you'll look down and there;ll be pages and pages and pages and you'll say

if I have writers block

WHO THE FUCK WROTE THIS

I am beginning to plow through this wall..
Apparently emotional turmoil is good for my writing ?!?!
Love exciting and new comes with exposure of my most tender parts...
Not those! LOL

A Moment
 
For me there is no greater reason to write than for the desire of love's gift....but when you get it...it time to just quietly enjoy the moment....congrats.
