I Miss Having Writer's Block

When I had it, I took it for granted

I would sit and stare at a screen

Wanting to pull my hair out in frustration

For how, when I tried to write a poem

About my life, the only thing that came

To mind were love poems that no one

Wanted to hear. I miss having to write

About past traumas to have something

To turn in on Friday's because I just

Couldn't get myself to be sad.

But here I sit, dozens of drafts

Clogging up my brain, documents

Full of poems open on my computer

Spilling out of me with the words

I can't tell you in person.
