Writer's Block!

*atomik_sprout* · Dec 04, 2007, 11:01 AM

Writer's block is such a pain.
All these words are racking my brain.
In front of a blank page, I complain.
The lack of inspiration drives me insane.

It's like an invisible wall made of steel.
I run in to it most when I write what I feel.
It would hurt like hell if said wall was real.
The wall won't budge, so I take a break for a meal.

Food didn't help, it just made me tired.
Were I a professional writer I would get fired.
Such a sad day when a writer, who's usually admired
can't produce motivation to stop being uninspired.

"Maybe a square will help lift the block."
So I go and have a smoke, but it only clouds my tought.
"What was I writing about?" ...I forgot!
Days like those make me want to rot.

I wouldn't call myself the most gifted.
And I know that my vocabulary has a limit.
The Limbo of writing--yes, I'm trapped in it.
Hey! Look at this poem! I guess my block is lifted!

^_^

Yeah, writer's block is a beeyatch! ^_^
I had made about four attempts to write something today and after the first stanza of each, I would delete it and start fresh. So, I'm thinkin' to myself, "Writer's block sucks AND blows!" Then that's how I got the idea to write this. Beleive it or not, it took me about two hours to over come my block and write this one! ^_^

Anywho, thanks to both of you for your comments and support! I appreciate it! It's good to know that even my poems about not being able to write poetry are liked as much as my sappy crap. LOL.
