Blank Pages

I kind of hate this....possibly.

Blank pages always scare me.

Like I MUST fill them.

Is that strange?

That when I turn the page,

I'm filled with horror?

I forget what I'm supposed to write

when I see the glaring lines of black

and paper of white

There's so much pressure!

And so many ideas

but when my pen begins to write,

I forget my fears.

For I know,

that then

the page isn't blank anymore

And now, there are new lines

ones that swirl and curve

and they say,

on my not-so-blank-page

“Blank pages always scare me.”

Author's Note

I might hate this, but I'm really not sure...

Not so much for me. I think this is rambling... you're looking for something to say and haven't decided what it should be... like static electricity. It’s just a random discharge. I don’t hate it but I've seen you do better. Don’t think about it just write it down let it sit for a couple of days and then go back and read it.
I have the same problem... I write when I’m tired and think “God I’m good ! Pure gold !” Then the next day I read it and wonder “What the hell was I thinking? This is crap ! Who wrote this tripe ?”

haha. i like it. it´s definitely different. i am a freak for a brand new notebook with nothing in it. i buy so many just because i imagine them full. none of them are.

A very interesting poem about how it feels to be a writer sometimes. I liked it.

i wouldnt say that i hate it, but i dont love it. i just like it. i think that you could have done way better on this piece. it was not your best work. i see how you could be stuck and be anxious on what to write. i hate writers block too. in fact, i just had writers block on my poem "Broken Deep Inside". i kept thinking and thinking then i finally thought of something. i put it out for people to see but i still dont know if even i like it.
so if you are having writers block then think it over for a while. a thought might just come to you yet! :)

happy writing! ~abagail~

It's a good write but its more like a ramble like maybe you dont know what to say?

Blank pages always scare me too. It's like it is calling out to you saying, "Write on me, please!" But then you have no idea what to write about :( Well that's how I interpreted it.

I hate it when i get writers block.But when i do get an idea it was worth it. :) this came out really good.

I like the fact it gives you a little bit of the impression your confused but when yuo write the world blurs like a first kiss or a secret crush. I like the fact it says to me that when you write the world seem to change and it's quite relatable because when I write it's like the wars just freeze and poverty's a rumour and anything happens. Not your best peice but I did like it :)

It's not bad. and, I really like the last two lines a lot. XD
But yeah, I write things, then realize I really hate it, so I understand.
