I don’t know what to write

I don’t know what to say

There are ideas in sight

And I’m wracking my brain

 

I’m not getting anything

Not even a drop

Uh…oh great

I lost my train of thought

 

I’ve read books

And watched movies

I’ve looked up words

From aback to groovy

 

Usually it’s easy

I don’t know what wrong

Maybe I should quit poetry

And write a book or a song

 

It goes in one ear

And out the other

Sometimes I think

Why do I bother

 

People ask me how I’ve been

And I don’t know what to say

With all this mental exhaustion

It’s been quite a day

 

Listen to me

Listen to me please

Don’t ever give up

Life’s not always a breeze

 

Continue to write

Even if you can’t think

Continue to write

Until you run out of ink
