Sitting In My Office
Sitting in my office
Papers scattered everywhere
Mid-term tests to type up
I've lost the heart to care
Sitting in my office
Reading some sweet rhyme
Wanting to write my own
But I'm so pressed for time
Sitting in my office
Typing fervently
No set theme in my mind
Just sharing part of me
Sitting in my office
Wish I could amaze
My words are all so...dead
Because I'm in a daze
Sitting in my office
Hoping my muse will bring
A dreamy gift of words
That makes hearts dance and sing
Sitting in my office
I let out a heavy sigh
Time to pack up and go
For now this is goodbye

I know....Sometimes you just want to do anything but what you are supposed to do. You just want to give in your obsession to write....to taste and experience and live and breathe and live and live and live...and you're stuck in your office with deadlines looming over your head...wishing you were writing poetry tucked up cozy in your bed! :(
I'm in a crazy mood. See you all in a few hours when I'm rested. It's been a long day. Tomorrow is every longer.
