Frustrated...

Pen clutched tightly
Notebook in hand
Attempt to write knightly

Words betray my thoughts
Fingers twisted in knots
Can’t seem to write for naught

Desire verse compulsion
I’m lost in the confusion
Writings resemble vile repulsions

Hand cramps in hesitation
Ink leaks onto the pad
Paper stained with stagnation

Ideas recoil in fright
Derision from my peers in sight
Motivation runs dry and takes flight

Cap my pen
Close my note book
Tomorrow I will try to write again…
