Emptiness of being

It feels so empty to have all the tools to do creative things but fail to find any motivation to get started. The lethargy of the mind and the body keeps me from doing anything creative. Ruminating thoughts and a sea of emptiness sways me from anything creative. What's is needed for creativity? Is it an inspiration, a longing desire or nothing? What inspires someone to be creative?

As I close my eyes, I get a deep sense of sleep. I see nothing. I feel nothing. Sometimes, it's hard for me to keep my eyes peeled open.
