Nothing Comes To Mind.

I'm sitting at my computer.
I type a line, then I rest my hand on the backspace until all letters are off
the screen.
A poem, a story, a song, a random thought.
Not knowing what to say, I constantly change my ideas.
Love, Hate, Sin, Faith, Friends.
What should I pick?

Some days I want to write, nothing comes to mind.
I go blank like a deer in headlights.
I sit and stare at the monitor until my eyes go dry.
I blink then I get a thought.
Lets go chat up a storm on Myspace.com.
So I leave YWS, not to return for another hour or so.


*I wrote this crap because I was bored and had no idea on what to write or what to say. so enjoy my crap.

I liked this. The first stanza is very good and I like the whole "backspace" thing, but I'd get rid of the last line here as it's too colloquial and I don't think you really need it.

I'd change "I go blank like a deer in the headlights" as it sounds stale. I enjoyed what you said in the end of this stanza.

This could be tighter and more powerful. Try playing around with it and see what happens. Hope this helps.

With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise."

Jasmine Hart...I hate to correct you, but in your signature? Her name is Stephenie Meyer, with an e instead of an a. Sorry for being such a prig!!!!

Rena, I know how you feel. The same thing happens to me all the time. Writer's block. Jeez. I hate it.

Anyways, great job!

enjoy it I did. The simple expression of writer's block while writing something good to express it
