Consciously Unconscious
Curse this barrier in my soul
My well is dry, tis but an empty hole
The linguistic river stopped by a mental dam
I'll force the flood gates open, by the sheer will of man
All eyes and ears shall know my fury
By the sound of paper and pen that scurry
Swift retribution before the words leave me
Let your creativity be the key to free thee
My well is dry, tis but an empty hole
The linguistic river stopped by a mental dam
I'll force the flood gates open, by the sheer will of man
All eyes and ears shall know my fury
By the sound of paper and pen that scurry
Swift retribution before the words leave me
Let your creativity be the key to free thee

Author's Note
I've been struggling to write in the past month. I never thought I'd run out of material but here I am. Fear not fellow poets! Something will come to me eventually.
All writing remains the property of the author. Don't use it for any purpose without their permission.

Over the years I have come to the realization that it is absolutely critical to keep reading whenever you aren't writing, since the mind will act as a mixing chamber for all of the incoming stuff that you are reading with the end result being a nonstop urge to create content you once thought yourself incapable of. Always, always read...and you will write!
I am always reading when I'm not adventuring or working. I couldn't agree more that reading is what keeps the creative cogs in my brain turning. Thanks for the advice!

I could not agree with MidnightSonneteer more. I'm having similar struggles.
But I really loved your poem. Let your thoughts incubate. I have no doubt you will create really great poetry.

Writers block affects us all unfortunately. Thanks for the encouragement, I'm sure your struggles will subside just as mine will. Just keep on keepin on:)
