Flashes of heart.

Thumps in the distance
eyes illuminated
flashes of heart
each one more distraught
a creature born
riddled between two places torn.

When I work on writing a book I often get wrapped up on the ending, and each character and then I’ll go off on other stories before I finish one. I have a difficulty staying focused on one thing at a time. Also I find myself unable to let the thoughts just flow, always controlling the ending before I’m halfway through a story.

I’ve been attempting to use images to inspire thoughts. I can’t always explain the meaning behind the poem or what feelings it provokes inside myself. I often will finish an image and then allow it to inspire random words to help me make sense of the image itself. I do that as a way to help myself allow thoughts to freely weave a story.
Thanks for reading.
