Writers Block

From  pen to paper my words will not flow,
oh how frustrating, I want to shout. How
I wish  I could think of some lyric, or line
to  put on  paper that would look so fine.


What Iv`e got is common enough, It`s
called writers block you see It happens
to the best of us you  know. 


It can  last a day, a month, or a year
brings misery instead of cheer. Knowing 
I have words to share, doesnt  help, 
or improve things at all. I might 
as well throw my pen away and
go up the wall.
