I can't write

Blue Violet

I can’t write anymore

I can’t

I can’t

 

Words and verses embrace my lungs and bones,

but nothing reaches my mind

My fingers constantly roam the keys,

yet, nothing seems to be right,

and I

 

feel hard to breathe.

 

I keep looking for pretty words

Where are they

Where are they

I need them, desperately

to describe my weary days

Oh I am sad, Lord knows I have been unhappy

That I must pour it all out

No matter how chaotic

How unlovely my words may sound.

 

Still, it’s a mess

Still,

I will write it all down

With the hope to find

The right words

Once again.

  • Comment from author about the poem: Hi! It's been quite a while since I last published poems. I fell in love and then out of love. Was sad, was happy, and sad again. I was so busy with my emotions that I let them overflow and not knowing how to control them or put them into words anymore. This has been a hard time, being unhappy and unable to express the unhappiness through writings like I used to before. I kept typing words down, just to delete all afterward. But I know I want to write, and I must keep on writing, so here is the result of my desperation and the very urge to interact with words. I hope this, to some extent, helps anyone who has been and is experiencing art blocks like me. Please keep on writing, and patiently wait until it makes sense again.

        Ah, writers block, experienced by most. Hopefully this poem is the start of breaking the streak and once it does, words will flow so fast you'll have to eagerly keep up with them. Nice write.
