I Cannot Write A Poem

I cannot write a poem
All the good topics are all gone
How many times have we heard a poem about love?
Or maybe one of sorrow and about being all alone?
I'm tired of depression, comparing things is old
It seems to me that all the good poems
have already been told

The author's comments:
The inspiration for this poem came when I remembered the poems I had to write last year for my english class. After reading everyone's poems, including my own,I realized how many poems were about the same topics, either they were about love or something sad. I really wanted to do somthing original, so this popped in my head. Enjoy!
