I can't write I actually physically can't OK OK how about, something with flowers Not like that's been done 1000000000 times I swear to god anymore similes and I will punch my own esophagus This is terrible OK ummm Fish tanks? Fish tanks aren't all that poetic I can't think of anything I think I'm dried up Like an empty... Fish tank ****** Wait a minute What if I just write something about Not knowing what to write That would be easy It also explains why this ***** ******

******
At the blank pages I Stare in annoyance to the empty spaces I shake with the fear that the writings may not please My pensive nature My hands, my brain fail to develop good Ideas that satisfy my heart and soul I stare at the blank page and wait For creativity to return And paint it with words Hanging in the smog, I see an image that I want to paint Hovering just out of my range As it slowly fades away, out of my focus I don’t have enough inspiration to Bring the fading image Back into my focus I strike the keys, The words appear But the words don’t seem to strike a bright bulb, In here I change the form, It stays that way For seconds Minutes Hours And soon, Days I think long about the Mystery, as to why The keys don’t Unlock the rooms in me It takes time to find the right words Combining them to paint A piece of art That rests deep inside A poet’s heart I am impatient Restless, Lost of Words Eager to find the words I need I rush it, write to fast Not thinking about what the artwork Will turn out to be I write a bad poem Stare at it with shock The impatient poet retires again Hoping it won’t happen once more As I rush again, I failed to learn from the past Poetry needs time I noticed at last.
