My Words Won't Work

I want to write something good.
But I can't ,
the words don't work as they should.

I try them here,
and try them there,
they sound all wrong.
And it doesn't seem fair.

The page remains,
as empty space.
As I put
these words in place.

I let the words flow through my head,
searching for the perfect way,
to make known
all the things I wish to say.

I ask qeustions
to myself quietly.
And there it is,
I have it finally!

I have found my lack,
of the perfect word,
and I fix it.
So it is ready to be heard.
