inspiration
is hard to find
when every little thing can be overanalysed

i want to write and let my feelings fly free
they have been caged inside me
for so long

other writers will look at a tree
and see the workings of the universe
carved into the bark

but i can sit for hours on end
pen in hand and
nothing

because i cannot truly be free
a filter blocks my purest thoughts
because when they are written down

they come alive and dance on the page
and they mock me for ever having thought
that i was human enough to do this

and i put down my virtual pen
is this my finale then?
