I know I should care
I know I should try
But its just not there
And I dont know why
Its the inspiration
Thats missing, and missed
The once aspiration
That could often assist
In writing, in knowing
What word to use next
Is gone, and still going
And its got me quite vexed
You see its the feeling
Thats behind the rhyme
That constant revealing
When the words are sublime
When the words themselves
Are all that exist
That cause us to delve
And slowly persist
The music, the song
Hiding within each phrase
While they all move along
In their own seperate ways
That feeling you've gotten
When the words are expressed
Your problems, forgotten
letting go of the stress
That feeling that comes,
When the idea is complete
When the writer succumbs
to what now is replete
You see its that feeling
For which I now strive
It seems so appealing
It keeps us alive
When all's over with
And the rampant mind rests
Often seems like a myth
But when comes, is the best.
Author notes
Ok, I have some serious writers block, and this is the only thing I could come up with to get over it... please be honest about it.

Hmmmmmm ...
I have to say that this is a common problem for me, and I imagine for just about anybody who's a writer.
Thanks for entering. -
OH! what a brillaintly clever write. I love this, I can so relate to this...your rhyme is perfect, and your poem flows like a dream!
Thanks for sharing this,
Luck. -
The first stanza was a very strong introduction. It had intrigued to keep reading (even though I would have anyway, lol)
Same for the ending... you came out with the same intensity that you started with.
My favorite stanza was the sublime stanza. I like the way you pieced the words together.
The flow in this was awesome. well done!

The rhyming is what I caught at first then came the point actually, my friend had that on friday she was talking to me and said something and I hit her in the middle of the head with my palm and she said that got rid of her writers block then she stared into space a little later. Awesome poem anyway. You made a great poem with writers block.

Hey solid way to get back at that damn block. I loved line 20. To slowly persist, its a great wording. It has a good flow but a really predictable structure, that's not really a bad thing, but it might not hurt to mix up the syntax a little more. Either way good write have some clappies

Very nice rhyming! Caught my attention well! I don't think you're in a writer's block at all with this! But I know they can be tricky, giving you a poem one week and leaving you for another two
. But I love the way you conquered the writer's block by writing about it, and showing your feelings as you write!
GREAT job
