From Heart to Paper

There's poetry here in my heart

the trouble is gracing the paper

no words do flow unto my pen

my mind contains nothing but vapor

Thoughts so jumbled

I cannot think

from this emptiness

my heart doth shrink

To be reborn

to come alive

those lovely words

I must revive

To write again

to share this heart

it's what I must do

how do I start

Words on paper

not making sense

they're not fulfilling

they make me tense

There's a dam within

holding back the flood

yet I plod on

as if through mud

I know they'll come

this drought will end

the words will flow

once again be penned

Rejoicing now

as the words return

from heart to paper

they begin to churn

They're like a taste of honey

blessing the soul

for now as they flow

I again feel whole
