There's little balls of paper
Strewn across my floor
The words are resting in my heart
And I can't find the key to the door
I am so choked up with emotions
So many of the rainbow's hues
If I could just get it down on paper
Maybe I could chase away these blues
But my pen is writing only nonsense
Meaning nothing to no one at all
As I look at my fruitless writing
My teardrops start to fall
I've been told I'm a passable writer
But when I need it most it's not there
I can't seem to get across the feelings
The words I need just aren't there
So I sit here with a fistful of tissues
As my tears are now on the run
It seems my poem must end this way
The same as it was begun
Strewn across my floor
The words are resting in my heart
And I can't find the key to the door
I am so choked up with emotions
So many of the rainbow's hues
If I could just get it down on paper
Maybe I could chase away these blues
But my pen is writing only nonsense
Meaning nothing to no one at all
As I look at my fruitless writing
My teardrops start to fall
I've been told I'm a passable writer
But when I need it most it's not there
I can't seem to get across the feelings
The words I need just aren't there
So I sit here with a fistful of tissues
As my tears are now on the run
It seems my poem must end this way
The same as it was begun
