My Unmarked, Unclaimed Territory

Hey guys! I'm back! Did you miss me? I'm sure you did! Anyways, I'm taking Creative Writing I this semester, and we read this poem called 'Unclaimed Territory' by Louisa DeBoo and my teacher asked us to write a poem based on her style, (which is about how hard the writing process can be) so I want to share it with you guys!
*Please keep in mind that this IS a ROUGH draft, so I haven't edited it yet. I'll do that in another post*

'My Unmarked, Unclaimed Territory'

The blank paper stares at me
I have no thoughts
The paper mocks me
Challenging my thoughts and intelligence


For I have nothing to write

Searching high and low
I'm seeking for inspiration
Words fading,
memories becoming so distant,
feelings and emotions leaving
where they hid and flee from me
Trying to reach them
They flee once again

My pen leaves. Going unused.

The blank paper stares at me
For I couldn't write
Mocking and laughing
The paper won.

Ok, please give me your feedback on what you liked about it, what you didn't like about it, and if there is anything that could be done to the poem to make it sound better. Thanks guys!

Gaining Followers

I'm up to 5 followers! Yay! I know it is not much, and you guys are probably like, "Five followers is not a big deal." Well.... for me, it kind of it is because I remember how close I was to giving up on my blog and just abandoning it, leaving it in that state and not caring anymore about what I should post or write about on my blog, but that wasn't an option for me. I love to write and express myself and I'm so glad that blogging was able to do that for me.


 So yea, five followers IS a big deal for ME because I wasn't even that close when I first started to blog, so I just want to say thank you to my followers and everyone that views my page (who should follow me if they like me so much :)) Please pray that my blog becomes a success because now I'm dedicated to posting entries frequently instead of once a month.
