How Do I Finish This?
I sit completely still,
Clearing all my thoughts.
Maybe I’ll be great,
Maybe I won’t.
Just my ideas are as horrible as the day someone makes pretzels for first time.
That’s what I say,
But people say the opposite.
They say I’m good.
Writing anything is harder than I thought....
Oh wait-
That’s a thought,
I should stop.
Word after word,
They just won’t come out the way I want, just like the endings of movies that shouldn’t be right.
Exactly that…
As you can see.
I would like to write stories that allow my readers to think of my appreciation,
Because this is rather boring,
And maybe it isn’t to some-
It is to me.
My throbbing mind that is bursting ideas,
Is just too fast for my cold slow hands to type them.
What should I write about,
How will I do it- I won’t
I have been taught to just write what I think,
And here they are…
So boring and complete nothingness. Nothingness. Nothingness.
I am just thinking about what to write...and then I write what I think.
I think I have an idea!
A good one too!
It is about-
Aw man...I forgot.
Memory is key,
But I don’t have a very good memory,
And I don’t have a key. A key. A key?
A key to unlock the door perhaps?
What door could I open?
The one door that unlocks my brain?
But there is nothing in there…
I must find that key to the forbidden past of my life, because all that matters to me, is in there for sure.

My teacher has been saying, that if I don't know what to write...just write about whatever is on my mind. This is what I came up with and I have a really big skill to writing poems, so that is how I formated it. This is my first piece, and I hope I did good.
