Writer's Block

 
Plenty of ideas

Cluttered in my head,

Instead of screaming out,

I write them instead.

Too many ideas,

Flutter out together,

Thoughts of love,

News, sports and weather.

"But what do I write about?" I say,

Where do I start?

So I split my ideas

Into three different parts.

Part 1: Emotions -

Like love and hate.

Part 2: Memories -

Both bad and great.

Part 3 is for everything else

That didn't quite fit.

Then I write and I write,

And eventually quit.

I can't think of anything

That's catchy or rhymes,

I try to control myself,

But I don't have the time.

I want to write a good poem,

Really I do,

But I have writer's block,

How about you?

Secret Crush

 
I look, I stare.

For you I care.

But I don't dare

Let you know how I feel.

I've been hurt before,

My heart's still sore,

And although its you I adore,

I keep my feelings hidden,

Locked, and forbidden

From everyone's knowing.

So I don't tell you how I feel,

Instead my heart is sealed.

But I promise to you

That when my heart is healed,

I will let down this shield

And let you know how I feel

about you.

But for now you remain

Just the same.

<br/>

You're my secret crush.

I look, I stare.

For you I care.

But I don't dare

Let you know how I feel.

I've been hurt before,

My heart's still sore,

And although its you I adore,

I keep my feelings hidden,

Locked, and forbidden

From everyone's knowing.

So I don't tell you how I feel,

Instead my heart is sealed.

But I promise to you

That when my heart is healed,

I will let down this shield

And let you know how I feel

about you.

But for now you remain

Just the same.



You're my secret crush.
