I Haven't Written in Days.
...
I haven't written in days.
I feel like someone took the ink out of my blood
And stole my pen from my drawer.
I feel like someone turned the wheels in my brain to a different page
And hid the keys so I can't turn it back.
I feel like the life in my bones are beginning to dry
Because I don't have my usual food for thought and I hadn't relieved myself
From the toxicity my words usually erase.
I feel... without writing...lost...
As if the pen showed the way and the ink paved it out...and the paper just smoothed everything the ink couldn't... and everything was just okay.
Now it isn't... because I hadn't written... I hadn't written in days....

This was beautifully written/expressed! Your words will return at the right time.
You have to take in-between breaks, The brain needs rest and food for thought. Sometimes my brain just stops. You have company. Just rest, no sweat. It will return when tummy is full of words again.
Definitely relatable. I hope we feel different soon. ♥️
