Writer's Block

selfstruggles

I will write something today even if it sucks
I will climb back on this horse even if it bucks
My voice is frozen words, abandoned, unheard
My thoughts left in limbo, emotions deterred
There’s a distant rumbling of words falling into place
How many will make the page before I hit erase?
I once had a muse; he died an untimely death
Rumour has it he choked, holding onto his breath
I’m letting my thoughts unfurl unsteady as they come
I’m just a starving artist who’s looking for a crumb
In another time or place it would be buried deep
But I’m a lion in the jungle, not a meek sheep
I just want these words to grab the reigns and take hold
Ink blasts the page, another story to unfold
The lion roared but it sounded like a gasp
The prey in his mouth, but then he lost his grasp.

Just want tell you that you should not set the readers up for disappointment by saying it is not your best. This poem was really good!
I loved the first line. It is like an order to yourself. I WILL write something today, even if it sucks! Love it!
Also, loved the lines about how many words will it take before you hit erase! I can so relate to that. Give yourself more credit, please! : ) |

Pretty damn god considering it came from a 49ers fan!!!! :p muwahahahahahaha
Seriously though, I love the way it all came together for you.
Me especially likes these two lines and shall steal them when you're not looking:
My voice is frozen words, abandoned, unheard
My thoughts left in limbo, emotions deterred
ulTIMate
(who at first questioned how he missed a poem by the Scorperiffic but when seeing the date now knows why) |
