When Words Are Tough To Write

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

This is a poem about struggling to find words that fit when it is tough to write. We've all been there, but how do we start writing again?

When Words Are Tough To Write

Blank stare at the blank screen

Cursing the antagonizing cursor

Words avoiding this nerd like the girls in high school

Plus grammar can't get any worser

Think.

Think!

THINK!!!

Tempest burning, creativity yurning

Held down by the man who can't write

Staring at the screen all night

If I could just start... it would be all-right. 

Think.

Think!

THINK!!!

Words are not finalized until spoken

I can change the words that I've wroten

Still need to fix grammar

But I can edit when I'm not broken

Think.

No....

Just write...

Just start putting words into sentences

Just write

Just start writing about your differences

Just write

Just start in about how warm this winter is

Just write

Just start putting words into sentences. 

Just write...

Just write!

JUST WRITE!!!

I stare at a blank screen quite often, but this really helps. Just write, just write, just write. That helps so much. Don't think, just write. A tip I will work on. Thanks for sharing.
