Monday Blessings - Feelin' Bittersweet

Hello Poetteers,

Family - you realize it's not complete with one person missing after they have been with you.

Fall - the weather may drain you but there is a sweetness that comes with the season.

Night - everything falls quiet. There is silence and you heart final feels at peace. It means you can be yourself when you pray. It also means you can finally sleep.

Noise - it's quiet for so long when it comes back you know it means happiness.

OctPoWriMo

Airports
bittersweet with hellos and goodbyes
can't come or leave without tears
don't dare to say the opposite
even if you
feel strong
going strong
hope it's only a few tears
instead of an overwhelming feeling
just pray and have faith everything will be alright.

Side note: I probably would have done the whole alphabet but then I came to the letter K and didn't know what to put.

Thank you,

Fida

kings and queens
love beautiful jewels
mostly gold

opals and diamonds
pearls and rubies
queens love kings

Though I'd help you out !:)

Hearing About IWSG

Hello readers, I was reading Ali's post about this support group that talks about writerly doubts. I have doubts and I shall share them because that's the point of a support group. I used to be insecure about traditional publishing, that no one with accept my writing. Then I heard of self publishing. Yet that added to my insecurities. I have no money or talent to showcase my writing. After IndieReCon I felt a better, yet once the high went away, I find it's only a little bit better. I need a team, I need help. I call for help, but I don't get replies. That's another insecurity, I don't think I have any fans. My blog is becoming dead and I keep thinking of deactivating my twitter. The only reason I stay is for the knowledge. And the worse insecurity, dare I say it. All the above add to me... wanting to quit writing. I have little motivation and that motivation is to show my Muslim community you don't have to be a doctor or lawyer or teacher to be...
