Troubling thoughts

There is a writer in deep thoughts, scratching a ball point pen against a loose paper of her notebook,
Her untold thoughts expressed in cursive writing, swaying across the page,
Imagining every scenario, that flashes instantly through her brain,
Her warm coffee, giving a coco scent in the cold environment, rain rolling down the foggy windows.
The flickering fire, casting shadows on the pale walls, as she scrunches up yet another paper and tosses it into the bin,
Her lips mouthing sentences that are trying to fall into place,
Her eyes looking at each corner of the room, trying to resemble something she had missed.
Her loosely tied punk hair, clearly defining her state at that point.
Wrapped up in a gray blanket she awaits, her mind racing with thoughts of no use,
Finding the perfect one took hours of no sleep, baggy eyes struggling to stay open,
Her half-eaten sandwich mounted onto a stool with a white plate...

But then there it was, right there, the moment she had wanted had just come into existence,
A little light had emerged and her mind was finally able to put together the piece she had desired,
The inky pen scribbled at once, across the black lines of the page,
Putting together what was troubling her mind all this time,
The perfect scenario, the perfect image, the perfect piece,
Her mind had been emptied, her winding thoughts had now been expressed.
And this feeling was one that only a writer could understand...
