I try to find the words I want to say, But they just won't come. I want the things I feel, to be the things I write. But the words won't come. When I write a poem, The words in my heart must be translated Into a language That can be both seen and heard. But sometimes the translator gets stuck, In trying to read My deepest, truest emotions Amongst the jumble of my thoughts. And so now I'm stuck With a plethora of locked-up feelings, Yearning to be said. And this is what they call, the writer's block.

But sometimes the translator gets stuck, In trying to read My deepest, truest emotions Amongst the jumble of my thoughts. And so now I'm stuck With a plethora of locked-up feelings, Yearning to be said. And this is what they call, the writer's block.
