Thoughts in my head,
Banging around – Thud. Thud. Thud.

They’re difficult to express,
Stories that are being repressed,
Stuck with me,
And they are forever mine.

Though I know that everyone could love them,
I know that these words in writing,
Will just never be all that exciting;
Maybe I’m disabled,
Or maybe they’re just not right.

Whatever the case, I struggle every day,
With these stories in my head,
They’re meant to be said,
To be loved and to be told,
But I don’t think I’ll ever be just that bold.
So as the characters grow more complex,
I try to write down something,
Anything to sort out the mess;
But I tend to hate it all the next day,
“This isn’t right! This isn’t at all what I meant to say!”

As time goes by, I think it may get easier,
If I begin practicing or being less disapproving,
Then as I grow, my vocabulary and fluency may start improving.

I’m sorry world; I’m still in debate,
With just how long you’ll have to wait.

My inability to write inspired this.
Because, ya know, if you can't think of anything to write, why not write about why you can't write?
