I think I’m having writer’s block. All it seems I can do is sit And watch as the clock Each second passing, The ticking of the hands seems to whisper, Telling me something I already know. Your brain is slow, You’re waisting time. Just think of something, A single rhyme That like a blossom in the spring Will bloom into a flower. I try to search inside my head But much like a fly in a spider’s web My thoughts are trapped Nowhere they can go. Or a dam of ideas about to over flow, Just needing one more to break the gates. But alas, here I sit Staring at the clock, Trying to think of something That will break my writer’s block.

Writer’s Block
You say I am obsessed with myself, And the way I look. Point out how I stare at the mirror and focus on every nook And every cranny of my body. But I am not obsessed, I just fear I’m going mad From a terrifying disorder who knows how long I’ve had. I‘m merely mapping out this body I see through this drunk-like haze. Searching for a sign to tell me “this is you” To tell me “this is right” and that there’s no mistake. Pinching myself until I feel something in this dreamlike state. It’s like a never ending nightmare, from which I Cannot Wake. Staring at the mirror at this body Which apparently is mine. No I am not obsessed, I just think I’m going mad, From a terrifying disorder who knows how long I’ve had.

Not Obsessed, Just Going Mad
