Writer's block

a thousand wishes

For my fellow writers,  

 

 

A blank paper and a pencil that's been sharpened a million times 

Lists of a thousand words and a hundred rhymes 

Thinking of writing from the heart but I'm never sure of where mine is  

Don’t really know what to say, I guess I'll go with this - 

 

 

8:33 a.m. the sun has barely risen  

Still its light is shining so bright  

that its blocking my vision  

I can barely write a single word 

 

It's like my mind is against me  

Its locked can someone give me a key 

I'm stuck and I don’t know how to be 

 

I pick up my pencil and write 

"By:" 

On the paper 

But I don’t even know why... 

 

I know I'm not like others 

Getting high to write  

Just getting by, no fight 

But maybe I should be? 

 

Writer's block is damaging me 

My brain is sore from trying so hard to think 

 

I tell me, just breathe 

But in between all of the 

Struggle 

After I feel like I might buckle 

I stop and feel the world around me 

Am I free? 

 

My mind takes control of me

and as for words, they can finally be

more than just ideas on a blank page

inside my mind

My hand start writing uncontrollably

Guess all I had to do is breathe

 

 

Alright that's all for now guys,  

 

 

Stop and just breathe  

No stress, no anxiety 

Just breathe
