Solitude and a blank page
my soul aches
to feel where my heart is.
Dreamy state of mind
makes my poetic mood
complete – dream, dream.
And even when words aren’t there,
I am wrapped in a dream
like cottony clouds
with a dizzying affect.
I talk in riddles
once in a while, even I
don’t understand.
Solitude and a blank page
my soul aches
to feel where my heart is.

Very nice. :) I like it. One thing that gets me though is that "affect" should be "effect".

Fall in love or fall in hate; Get inspired or be depressed; Ace a test or flunk a class; Make babies or make art; Speak the truth or lie and cheat; Dance on tables or sit in the corner; Life is divine chaos. Embrace it. Breathe. And enjoy the ride...
