I Haven't Written Anything In A while, Are You Happy Now?

"I haven't written anything in a while, are you happy now?"
Silence, a shroud that wraps around my mind
A barren landscape, where words once left behind
The muse, a mistress, who's lost her gentle touch
Leaving me with nothing, but a hollow, gnawing clutch
Are you happy, now that my pen lies still?
Do you rejoice, in the emptiness that chills?
Or do you weep, for the words that could have been?
For the stories untold, and the dreams unseen?
My mind, a maze, where thoughts once danced and played
Now lies dormant, like a frozen, winter's day
The spark, that once ignited, the flame that once burned bright
Has flickered out, leaving only shadows, and a dull, gray haze
Are you happy, now that my voice is mute?
Do you delight, in the silence that computes?
Or do you mourn, for the songs that could have been sung?
For the melodies, that once echoed, and the harmonies that were young?
But still, I hold on, to the hope that remains
A glimmer of promise, that whispers, "Write again"
For in the stillness, there's a story yet untold
A tale that will unfold, when my words begin to flow
So, are you happy, now that my pen lies still?
I think not, for in the silence, there's a story yet untold, and unfulfilled.
