Plight of a poet

I sit here with a blank page and pen
trying to write a poem
oh, but where do I begin?

I have so many thoughts running through my head
but they all just fill me with dread

What to write about?
love?, hate?, money?, lust?,
trust?, stars?, wars?
OH! these have all been done before
now my brain is sore

I take a break
I have a Snack
now I am back to attack!

Do i write about a rainbow?
how about a shadow?
a willow?
or maybe a pillow?

AAHH! I give up!
this is too much work!
and my brain hurts!

oh well, one day i will try again
to write a lovely poem
maybe then i will know where to begin.
