Thought of a new poet

About two years ago or so I had had a creative block. I’m foremost an artiest so this really up set me. I have all ways been creative but at that point in my life for some reason any thing I tried to paint would not turn out the way I wanted it to. This went on for some time and I all most give up. For some unknown reason I started to write down my feelings.
I’m a talk show host at www.freedomslips.com and I talk with many types of people and by writing down my feeling I began to see where they where coming from. A lot of the topic where about the fear that people have of the future. One line formed in my mind and I have no idea where it came from.
The line was “Here I sit on the edge of tomorrow and all I fell is the Worlds sorrow” I wrote it down a few times and noticed that it made me think. That one line soon became 2 then 3 and I noticed that my creative was coming back slowly. I keep putting down line with no real order and most rhymed and the few that did not I was able it work them out so they did.
To cut this short I only showed a few what I was doing, they talked me in to posting some of them on Face Book. This got me over my fear of letting people see them. Now just about a week ago I post my first book of poems up for sale. It is called Screams of color. Its not a big book but by doing it I have learned to face my own fears and to deal with the fears of the guest that I talk with. People need to face what they fear if souls are to grow and I believe that is what we are here to do. I had all ways believe that being creative was all that was needed but I learned that by facing your fears help you be creative.
Here is one of my first poems
Loves Pain

I long for the days when love was new,
and the doubts where far apart and few.

Slowly the tears roll down my face.
Why did my heart take me to this place?

Back then my heart was full of loves light.
Now my soul fells dark as a winters night.

Half truths and lies have filled my brain.
Its hard to tell thought that are not insane.
The things that I think I can't explain.

With all the dark thoughts that roll in,
its become harder to fight the sin

These thoughts could come with a big toll.
One that may be could cost me my soul.

My thoughts will soon bring more pain.
Pain as Strong as a cold nights rain,

When thoughts are darkest you will find,
you must understand this is the time,
to use the eye with in your own mind.

Hope you enjoy and may be even take some thing out of this. Thank you.
