REMINDING MYSELF TO LIVE THROUGH POETRY

I had gone through a very intense writer's block. Every empty page felt like a mockery, a reminder of how I might never get to write poetry again. I still attempted during the time to write something, anything, but all failed. Almost two years later, I wrote a poem. I wrote another one the next day, and so on, until I got back my groove. I realised I was learning poetry again, I was learning to live again, through poetry, I lived.
