How can you write when words refuse to flow
Inside you hide the things you need to say
There's nothing on the paper you can show
Ideas can form that others need to know
But there are times the language will not play
How can you write when words refuse to flow
Each page you fail to fill makes problems grow
The colours in your mind are turning grey
There's nothing on the paper you can show
The seconds pass so maddeningly slow
And carry off the dreams your would convey
How can you write when words refuse to flow
The loftiest ambitions driven low
When inhibitions drive your muse away
There's nothing on the paper you can show
Your efforts have produced unrisen dough
While friends bake breads to feast on every day
How can you write when words refuse to flow
There's nothing on the paper you can show
In a list
Please tell me honestly what you think, good or bad.

The scourge of all poets ... writers block.
An excellent poem about something we all dread.
Well done
