Writing Prompts
This is a link to a page on my blog where I have 10 writing prompts to motivate your mind. I will change them often so keep checking back but I will re-post the link every time I change them. Get INSPIRED! 

Like a dying rose

I’ve wilted too long

My petals have fallen

To the earth, I just can’t

Go on.

The blue skies bypass me

I’m drowning in rain,

Though my thorns still

Sharp enough to cause

You pain.

My roots still connected

But I’m covered with

Weeds. Ugly and alone,

In a place too dark for the

Sun to see.

A girl with an attitude

A girl who lives a life of solitude

A broken soul with a working heart

An unconscious brain that’s smart

A girl who loves through hate

A girl who’s not afraid to break

A writer with an ink-less pen

Am not ashamed to pray after sin.

A girl who hates to love her life

A girl that’s seen her share of strife

A shameless heart breaker

An incredible love maker

A girl that’s full of ambition

A girl that hasn’t been conditioned

A mess, I admit it all!
But at least this girl isn’t afraid to fall…

Pills are my meal.

Alcohol my water.

Strange the new normal.

So serene in this inverted world.

Always in a fog.

Don’t care at all.

I no longer hear fear call.

I swallow pill after pill just to feel real.

My days are a maze.

At night I hallucinate.

My mind lazy.

This addiction is holding me hostage.

My body numb.

Irrational mood.

My conduct so lewd.

Have I gone too far? I don’t know what to do.

So much rage!

So, so ill.

Talking crazy.

Need intervention. I’m too weak to save me.

Pills are dulling.

Alcohol drowns.

I’m falling down.

Conflictive addiction. I need that relief, though I know it’ll end in grief.

I want to live again.

Not just exist.

It’s up to me to end this.
