Denise Gold Poet Rhyme

Writer's Block

I've been looking at the same piece of paper for the past year and a half
thought maybe if I returned to it today that my skill would be back
I came back thinking I could write something so good like I used to do
but I've been sitting here for hours and still didn't even get to Stanza 2.

This block that I have, I don't think that it can go away
My mind is full of thoughts but I can't find the words to display
Maybe I'm just not cut out for this anymore, maybe my well has dried
I sat here for hours attempting to make this work, I really tried.
