Woe Is Me

woe is me
something I never say
Or even think

I am standing by with a pen
anxiously waiting

holding my breath

sorry....
my mind is blank
and my muse silent

You gave us something which is very good and a start. However, I am sure will lead to a very passionate work at some point today. I find stress slows down the creative process. Thanks for sharing this one and for dropping by my blog. Sara
