Removing the Block



When the dreams stop their forming
and visions start to fail
my pen drops uselessly
and I stare off into space.

Sometimes I fall to sleep
and others I day dream
when I dream while awake
they are amazing things.

Filled with theories of space
and traveling in time
these adventures I take
can fill hours of life.

With each moment passing
I feel filed and ready
to find my pen again
and keep on my writing.
