An Over Abundance of Stress

Will cause Writer’s Block

My muse trembles in nervous fear,
My inspiration is not clear.
I cannot write without a light,
I do not see the verse or line,
I cannot hear the words or rhyme,
This darkness blinds my spirit’s sight.
This constant worry causes stress,
And makes my thought process a mess.
There is no poem I can write.
