Writer's Block

I am giving up on writing for I have lost the will

Or maybe I’m doing it because I’ve lost the skill

I remember when I first started I did it for the thrill

But now when I write it feels like I’m running up hill

I used to write when I was depressed so my blood wouldn’t spill

But now writing is like cutting a diamond with a plastic drill

Its like trying to stab this knife through a bullet proof windowsill

It feels like all my thoughts have stopped and become locked

God damn it I hate it when my poetic flow becomes blocked

Isn't it ironic that having writer's block helped you to render a bad ass poem? =) Blessing in disguise. ~Faerie~
