Writer's Block

Writers block” repeats in my throbbing mind

My thoughts are mangled and intertwined


From my pain that is suppressed

Stems creativity waiting to be expressed


I feel the need to be resilient

My desire to be heard is brilliant


There are many thoughts I wish to declare

My inner reflection is ready to share


What will become of this is unclear

But I feel brave, I have no fear


I have many words I wish to convey

I tickle the page with my word play


In this place, I feel complete

It is here that I find my heart beat


Pen in hand, I find my escape

Pen in hand, the words start to take shape
