I waited <br />Pen held above a blank sheet <br />I waited, but nothing <br />I looked around and waited <br />For something <br />Something that can awaken <br />This mind, dormant for so long <br />But nothing <br />I want to write <br />But this mind is blank <br />This pen remained unused <br />And this paper blank for days <br />How frustrating to have <br />A heart obsessed to write <br />And a mind intent on sleeping <br />And so I wait <br />For that glorious moment <br />In a poet’s life <br />When everything moves <br />With poetic grace <br />And then I write <br />But until then <br />I wait<br /><br />Jemarie Ragudo<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/frustrated-5/
