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.
