Writer’s Block

2012-07-31

I couldn't think of anything to write

so I thought of you

and all of the things

I'd always wished

you would do

I couldn't think of how to get started

running around

working on everything else

Master procrastinator

evading one possible pain

in exchange for countless others

I couldn't think of a time

when my eyes were ready for sleep

but I couldn't get you out of my mind

Dreaming of sleep to take me away

hoping for a place with no real pain

I couldn't think

so I let my feelings fly

reaching for the deep night sky

Inky darkness yearning

to jump from dark to light

through my pen's hand
