Another sheet of my soul is torn.

What part of me
Demands this self mutilation?

It is my eyes!
See how they flow at the sight of
Words once so adored?

It must be my brain
That has now deemed its own thoughts
Worthy of execution.

No, it is my heart,
Who, upon reading the words it
Bled onto that blank page,
Has decided the spilled emotion
Far too inadequate to continue
Beyond this room.

EDIT: Or, is it "this room" which is in fact hindering my ability to produce language deserving enough to find a place on my page?

Writer's Frustration

Great poem. You capture the true essence of writer's block in beautiful poetic form.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
