Look, I need to runA Poem by Leah
Look, I need to run.
So listen to every word I say.
Before my instincts kick in,
Concluding my creativity for the day
Insecurities dry up my rhythm
Blockages decapitate my mind
I'm loosing words behind the breath
Of a whisper, speaking of perfection
Taunting my sentences and metaphors
Dripping over evil criticism and destructive ink
Blinding me again of my own ingenuity
I need to shout these words, leave no room for a breath
Before I burn myself out and fall into numbness again
Creativity is a spike, a curse in my mind
Murdered by my own thinking
I know, I know
It's hard to explain but these blockages are returning,
Did you listen?
...
Look, I need to run.
