I simply cannot write today,
the words are just not there.
I simply will not write today,
it’s far too much to bear.
I simply cannot write today,
despite what you have heard.
I tell you, I won’t write today,
no, not a single word.
I feel this many, many days and it is so frustrating! I understand this completely and LOVE that even though you feel you cannot write, you still manage to get out a simple, honest poem :-)
This is very sweet! I really adore how you begin- kind of sad and forlorn, and then finish with defiance. It is one of those things I am sure everyone on WC can relate to! You really nailed your audience!
I am looking forward to reading more of your work!
Absolutely can NOT stand those days. A writer can not breathe without the flow of words to put down on paper. No food has flavor or appeal, etc. Love it!
