I woke up late and have to rush
There is no time to waste
Please! Let me write before I go
I need to write a poem
For words are in my head
From when I wake to when I sleep
I never get a break
Sometimes the words keep coming and coming, and at other times I simply don’t know what to write about. It really differs, but the first happens more often than the last 😉
Yes! If I didn’t write, I’d be constantly talking to myself. That works if one of my children or dog is nearby–I just say I’m talking to one of them. When I am by myself, well, that’s another story entirely. So… I write in order to stay sane, or at least give the appearance of being sane. LOL! A girl has to do something with all those thoughts!
It can be words, photography, the current game I’m playing, new recipes. The brain just never takes a break. I think I work more at night than during the day.
I know what you mean. It’s a blessing and a torture. Many problems can be solved by thinking them through at night. sometimes I just keep doing the same thing over and over again and just have to get up and do it so I can go back to sleep.
Sometimes I get a poem, or a story, so fast I either write it out now or lose it.
Other times, a small complete poem suddenly starts unraveling, and I don’t want to forget it. Also, at times, I have a complete storyline, but have to find the words to say it right.
The time I like the most is when I have just a sentence pop into my head, like “Why are YOU a farmer?” and I have to stop and ask why would those words, said in that distinct way, need to be said, and by whom? Then, slowly, I start to piece together a story that practicaly writes itself, when I try to think of why each part needs to be said.
Of course, sometimes there can be days even weeks when the only words in me deal with my daily life, and not with any muses.
When I was much younger I wrote stories, then life made me too busy. A few years ago I started blogging, first with just poetry and thoughts. Then stories started oozing out of my subconscious again. In small trickles, often with cynical seeming endings, but at least they’re coming out! So I try to work on expressing.
Thank you. Feel free to comment to death anything I post. I cannot know if the words work for people other than me, or if someone thinks my thoughts are a bit misdirected and why, if no one comments . . . . 🙂

I agree, and its amazing what one can learn during the night, my mind solves all sorts of problems when I’m asleep or just waking up 🙂
