Writer’s Block

…

… 

Let’s stay in this silence for a while.

Bask in this confusing comfort,

Of not having to touch hearts 

Let’s sit and think 

In a not so colourful way 

Shh…

Stay with me

in this moment 

Don’t write a word about this 

…

…

Author's Note

I’m not fond of poems without any rhythm, but I felt like this one would convey its “message” clearer without conventional methods

Reviews

Great idea of writer's block as time for silence.

Probably we don't have to talk all the time and accept not writing as listening.

[Betty Hermelee]

Well written poem! Sometimes it’s nice and necessary to be silent ; to think, to dream, to rationalize without a word…… these moments are precious, even though the relationship might not be; you’ve shown in a bittersweet way a path of comfort
