Why can't I write?
Why can I no longer bleed words?
Has life taken that much of a toll
That I can no longer write about my world?
Isn't pain or happiness supposed to inspire a beautiful or heart wrenching poem?
I am currently experiencing both feelings in my life, but the words still do not show.
I spend hours on a keyboard, and weeks on my phone; trying to type a simple tiny poem.
But the blank page stares at me, mocking my lack of inspiration. I feel a lack of dedication and not an ounce of motivation.
I've lost it...
I can no longer express my feelings through ink or through the keys on a computer. I thought this was my skill, but I guess writing is no longer in my future.
