Beautiful poems 😍

Yeahhhhh I can definitely relate to the no inspiration thing....work, classes, homework, and the stress of being in a new environment without my favorite people all add together to leave me....I guess empty would be the right word. At the end of the day, I’m so exhausted that I don’t want to spend any time doing anything except maybe watching videos on YouTube or ninja turtles, or just stare at a wall in silence. It’s upsetting because I used to constantly be filled with new ideas for stories and characters and drawings and music and all these different things, and I almost feel as thought college and just the stress of becoming an adult has almost killed it. Almost. I know it’s still there, because sometimes the random inspiration does strike, and it lets me escape from the mundane. Just not as often as I wish it would. I think it will just take time for me to adjust to everything...I’m hoping it will be better then

I'm not a creative writer by any stretch but I've been working on a few ideas. . .this certainly challenges me to work on them a little each day whether I "feel inspired" or not! Your poems are wonderful!
