POEM: Writer's Block

It’s been weeks, and I haven’t written a single word.

I’m going through my worst writer’s block in a long time.

My heart feels empty when I don’t write.

It’s been a downtime.

I need to escape my writing funk.

Staring at my computer screen won’t do.

Getting out of the house is what works best for my written word.

My inspiration awaits me out in the open.

I go out to experience new things.

To see new places.

To feel new feelings.

To write new words.

I will chase it away and words will come back to me.
