write
 
I hate when you must write something
you need to write something but you try
and everything seems contrived and
you look outside and it's all very grey
but you know someone great has written
about that before and the trees
in the park are very bare and black but
you wouldn't dare to write about that and
the buildings blink out conversations
with each other but of course
you don't know what they're saying and
all the while you must write something
you need to write something but
you are too afraid to try

Haha, I love this. I will hold this close to my heart. What writer hasn't felt this way before? You always hear about - write something that means something to you. Then you figure it out and you're like oh man, this has been written about over and over. The sky is nice today? Oops... written about... The trees are bare... that's cool looking. But who gives a flying one about trees? This is wonderful.


I wish we still did Song of the Month. This would get my vote.

I like this. At first glance it seems kind of meaningless but really reading into it, it makes a lot of sense. Like most good pieces of work.

This is awesome, I feel like this quite a bit.
I think the way you described everything and the language you used conveyed the emotion perfectly.
