The words
They wont stop coming out.
They keep flowing-
They're not slowing down.
Skitch skatch
I don't know
If I love it
Or hate it
Skatch skitch
This feeling-
I just can't shake it.
My emotions are spewing out
In words I don't know.
The words- they don't stop,
They continue to grow.
The letters just
Keep coming my way
I can't stop writing,
I'm wasting away.
One,
Two,
Three poems
Four.
I am afraid
I'll keep writing more.
In these poems
My spirit lingers
I can't stop
These exhausted fingers. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 215 [topic] => 76 [informant] => JettaV [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => obsession )

Exhausted Fingers

Scritch scratch

They keep flowing-
They're not slowing down.
Skitch skatch

Skatch skitch
This feeling-
I just can't shake it.
My emotions are spewing out

I am afraid
I'll keep writing more.
In these poems
My spirit lingers
I can't stop
These exhausted fingers.

Great poem showing how automatic and addictive writing truly is. Lately, I have had a lull in my writing, but I can relate to this piece. Nice job!

i like this poem! it's cute! it's so true, though. once you get involved into writing, and things come to you - you don't want to stop. you have talent.
