My Head

People told me to try meditation,

So I did without hesitation.

Too much running through my head,

It makes me want to stay in bed.


Sometimes I write letters,

To make myself feel better.

It’s hard putting emotions into words,

So mine aren’t typically heard.


Sometimes I get writer’s block,

So I just stare at the clock.

I wait for ideas to flow,

“On your mark, get set, go.”

 

Words can be hard to speak,

Especially if they’re bleak.

I try not to say some,

Because they have negative outcomes.


The author's comments:

I wrote this poem based on me, myself, and I. It describes how I feel when I write some of my more stressful poetic pieces. I try to write a few times a week, but some of my pieces need more than a few days of attention. This short poem took e a little bit to write because I originally didn't know what to write.
