Poetry: Writer's block

Look at that paper

Just look at it

Pointing at me with no hands

Laughing at me with no lungs

In my head

Mocking face

Punched the desk

Thump

Thump

Thump thump thump thump

Hurt my hand

Hate the paper

Cry inside

And then

Yes!

Success!

Pen scratching paper

A lovely good sound

The block is gone

It'll be back

Doesn't matter

Life's good now

    When creativity just won't go.
    When ideas are stuck as thought,
    And ink from pen won't flow.

    Writer's Block.

    Writer's block is bringing me down,
    My Muse has fallen asleep it seems;
    I wish while in her peaceful slumber,

    by Sam Maine

    Pen in hand;
    Beautifully blank white paper
    Staring at you.
    Willing you to write.

    Pen poised,
    Ready to record
    Emotions, thoughts,
