I can’t write!

(a poem)

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m angry

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m tried

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m happy

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m uninspired

 

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m cold

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m hot

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m excited

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m not

 

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m out

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m at home

I canโ€™t write when people are around

I canโ€™t write when Iโ€™m alone

 

I canโ€™t write, I canโ€™t write!

Will I ever write again?

If the words will just appear

Will someone tell me WHEN
