Words

I've come to the end
And hung up my pen
No more words shall I write

My stories don't sell
I know this so well
Time to say goodnight

Worlds I've created
Now are abated
With no value or worth

With trepidation and strife
My stories of life
Will no longer spill forth

(For) I've come to the end
And hung up my pen
No more words shall I write

Author Notes
While I renewed my membership today for another year, (my sixth year on FanStory) I am not totally convinced that it is what I should have done.

I feel this site is well geared towards poets.

However, for prose writers such as myself, there appears to be very little available for them. Perhaps that is why so many have left the site.

Don't know what the answer, or fix, is for that problem, but it is one I feel needs to be seriously addressed.








This is Evan, by Lillibug6, selected to complement my poem.

So, thanks Lillibug6, for the use of your picture. It goes so nicely with my poem.
