Writers Block

Want to write but the words won't come
A part of me has become numb
From heaps of troubles and problems galore
It just seems I cannot write anymore

Challenges pounding me into the ground
Life can really get you down
Fortunes can help to lift you up
But there aren't enough to fill a cup

I want so much to feel light again
But all I can do is to keep asking when
I pray and hope and try to trust
But that's not so easy when we are but dust

Maybe one day the sun will shine bright
But for now, there is this internal light
I really do not know what our future will be
One day at a time, and I will see

Please help me to keep faith and stay strong
Do not allow this to take too long
I need to find my way back home
Please don't let this be fixed in stone

Though we are but dust, we all feed
on the search for comfort that we all need
I haven't a clue as to how
But please, God, let it be now
