It’s now been over a year since I had surgery. I had surgery in March of 2020 and not long after I got out of the hospital the pandemic hit. UGH! It cheated me out of a planned trip with my aunt since all theme parks had closed down due to the pandemic. Still haven’t gone anywhere yet. :'( Someday……
Yes! I haven’t read that one, but I saw the movie. I’m sure there’s no comparison, though, as books are usually better. Anyway, I agree about getting a good book and relaxing.
Its funny, I love easy days, were I can stay at home and do anything I want. dont we all?
(it doesn’t happen much as I like it to, until now)
but this is so different, the feeling it brings, that you cant go out…
I’m not sure if this is the right word to use “lethargic” I cant go out and see my friends, so I want to even more
they are saying we are going to be locked down here now for 15 weeks.
As I dont have go to work for a while
I’m going have some a little time on my hands, going to try to get back into doing my story, plan to give it an ending as my game is still playing up, and it takes forever to do one scene.
I just want you to know…
Its helps a lot to say how you feel Kymber and it helps overs that are feeling the same way.
its a clever way to do it in a poem 🙂
thank you so much Kymber for all you do here on this site. I feel like you are looking after us all in a small way 🙂
you are a like a ray of sunshine here.
So try and remember that you are very much cared about and loved by family and all the friends you made here.
I definitely relate with finding it an exciting thought to explore now abandoned places. But, staying home and staying safe because it’s the right thing to do. I really enjoyed this poem, so apt for us introverts during hard times.
Ha ha ha! Yes I do know. I want so much to tell people how they impact me in positive and inspiring ways but if I get a compliment I look for my introvert closet to hide in, 😂. Strange but true.
I’ve always felt that way even when I was a child in preschool. I wanted to just do my own thing. If some kid grabbed my crayon the war was on. I would transform into my dark gothic steampunk vampire persona and even garlic wouldn’t stop my crayon rescue mission from the evil hordes.
It wasn’t until the teacher sat me down and discussed crayon etiquette with me that I learned the crayons weren’t mine after all. So, I took up with scissors, craft paper, and glue. Nobody messed with me after that. 🤪
LOL Scissors have never been my friend. I’m afraid I felt a bit dumb because they wouldn’t work. It wasn’t until later I found out my trouble stemmed from being left handed. lol
OMG! You made me snorkel laugh that time 😂. And you are rarest of the rare gems for being a left handed INFJ. I was an ambi because I could do the same thing with one hand as the other but using my left hand with right handed stuff convinced me to just give up and go with the flow. I am right hand dominant now but wear my watch on my right hand so every body thinks I’m left handed. Sometimes just for fun when business requires hand shakes, I throw my south paw out and then watch the struggle to compensate. I’m not really mean like that all the time, it just happens.
I don’t know where you get your inspiration for your poems but it must be a creative oasis when reading your art. Superb two last lines. Happy weekend to you and your family ☀️

Your poetry is beautiful.
That first stanza hit me with a gut-punch. Like, idk if I can move on from that lol. I feel you.
Thank you so much. xoxo
I’d love to wander the streets with nobody else around!
LOL Right? Me, too. 😀

It cheated me out of my Alaskan cruise, so I can sympathize. 😀 I hope you get to travel soon, Hilly.
I just finished Girl on A Train .. good to get a good book and relax

I stated Gone Girl a long time ago and now to finish it LOL
Let me know how that one is. 😀
New world, need the six feet. You would be surprise the people who are sick. Still roaming around. Be safe dear friend.
Thank you so much. You stay safe, too.
You are welcome dear Kymber and be safe my friend.
Thank you. You, too.
This was like reading about myself! Minus the husband. Kitty cat by my side, though. Nice work here, I think a lot of folks can relate.
Thank you so much. 🙂 Say hello to your kitty for me. 🙂
This is amazing! Hope you are staying safe and healthy <3
Thank you! ❤❤ We’re doing fine here. I hope you are staying safe and healthy, too.
PURR, PURR, PURR! 😀
LOL Thank you 😀
Oh yes! That is excellent. RT.
Thank you so much, Jacqui! I appreciate it.

Please Stay strong and safe too
D,
Thank you so much, Darren, for your encouraging words. You are so kind. 🙂 I’m glad I could brighten your day. Please stay safe.
Love it!!
Thank you. 🙂 Stay safe, dear Jo.
*waving at my fellow INFJ!* I absolutely love this poem. I chuckled because I could relate about having been doing social distancing for years 😀
P.S. Love your cat kiddo. Adorable!
Hellooooo! *waves back* 😀 I’m so glad you loved the poem. And, Cesare the cat says thank you, too.
Bittersweet, and it echoes my thoughts recently of how many of us don’t get out much anyway. Very well written, Kymber. Stay safe xx
Thank you so much, Caz. Praying you’re staying safe, too. xo
So right, so true
the same for me and you
while we are used to closed in walls
the rest are all now feeling blue
Okay I’m not a poet, but I tried on the spot.
Hey, that’s really good, Bee! 😀
May I share this on a poetry site of mine, full credit given of course.. 🙂 It’s very poignant and many can relate!
Yes, of course. I’d be honored. 🙂 May I have the link when you do, please?
Thanks! 🙂 https://wordpress.com/read/blogs/169843421/posts/1413

Thank you, Dan. I’m so glad you liked the poem, and that it hit the right notes. 😀
Your talent is inspiring to us common folks, Kymber ☺️
lol Well, now I’m blushing. You know how INFJ’s are with compliments.
Ha ha ha! Yes I do know. I want so much to tell people how they impact me in positive and inspiring ways but if I get a compliment I look for my introvert closet to hide in, 😂. Strange but true.
Not strange to me at all. 😂
I knew you would understand 😊
Of course. 😀
It’s INFJ world. 😃 I wonder if other people realize what they are missing by not being like us?
Maybe, but it’s usually we who are the outsiders.
I’ve always felt that way even when I was a child in preschool. I wanted to just do my own thing. If some kid grabbed my crayon the war was on. I would transform into my dark gothic steampunk vampire persona and even garlic wouldn’t stop my crayon rescue mission from the evil hordes.
LOL This is so similar to me, I can’t even tell you. haha I totally get your reaction, though.
It wasn’t until the teacher sat me down and discussed crayon etiquette with me that I learned the crayons weren’t mine after all. So, I took up with scissors, craft paper, and glue. Nobody messed with me after that. 🤪

LOL I like that it just happens. Keep them guessing, I always say.
That’s right! familiarity breeds contempt. So don’t let familiarity dull the day. Keep em guessing. Words to love life by.
I know that’s right! 😀
