Writer's Writing Writers Block

Of all the things I want to write,
Braver than me today, just these endless thoughts might,
A sky that doesn't exist, there I would fly a kite,
My brain thinks, but to the muse! I just cant hold on tight!
What to write? My brain just argues and fights,
Will I ever be able to see my work's sight?
I have an idea! Wait that's not right?
Hey brain! Where are you? Don't hide?
Do you even support me? Are you even on my side?
Look, see in the ocean! I see a writer's block tide!
What a block! Whilst we rhyme!

I can relate as I suffered from writer's block for about 9 months when my mum was ill and then passed away, I never force writing you have to wait for your muse to behave!:-) hugs Jan xx
