AFTERWARDS

Ideas seem inferior when they are actually said aloud

Maybe it is better to hold every dream, every aspiration, every ache, inside the soul, like a toy dancer inside a small treasure box

For when pressure builds, the release is momentary and silence is eternal

That is the trick to being a poet, writer, or musician. To take the inspiration that comes to use and take it for all it's worth. ;) But there are moments where inspiration is not a visitor that says hi and leaves. Sometimes it's a ton of bricks that falls on your head and all you can do is let it out lest something so great be left behind. :)

Your intro is catchy..."Ideas seem inferior when they are actually said aloud". That's why I keep whispering..LOL. This is a well thought poem. I enjoyed reading it.
