i am not worth the ink in my pen

why can i write of nothing i know of
and why cant i of what i do
why can i write of what i dont feel
why not of emotions, true.
im not able,my reasons why
am i without sincerity
i cant write whats inside
emptyness inside of me.

expressive words, come to me
for i cannot think
i am a pen.. without ink.

About this poem:

my poem is me feeling very fusterated, a very special lady i know is on her final hours and waiting for sleeping angels to waken and guide her home to heaven, what to write how im feeling right now, but i cant, the words wont come' im a failure... i am stupid.

Sometimes we just feel numb Itchywitch.
Conveyed very well.

Hi itchywitch,

The most powerful emotions are the ones most difficult to express. We can but only try.

Wow! Now that's powerful! The ink in your pen is worth an ocean of compassion. The fact that you can't express how much you care about a person is only proof of the infinite worth and power of love. Perhaps one of our greatest gifts is our inability to describe the great emotions and thoughts that pass through our souls. God has a community of poets to take a shot at it..The exploration of life's mysteries is a great challenge for the poet..

Hi Ichy, you have expressed the emotions quite well in this poem. So, you have gone passed that stage when emotions were restricted.

hi and thank you one and all

and for the good advice also, soom poems here make me wish i could express feelings and emotions much more better, but im more of a teller more so then a poet and thats ok as we cant all be the same... but sometimes, when you dont want to talk to anyone it would be nice to at least be able to write it down, not sure why really but when you want to and you cant, it does become ever so fusterating
