The sound of my pencil tapping fills my room
I struggled to come up with a memorable moment to write as a poem
Then I think to myself “Isn’t poetry the words of one’s soul?
Not the words that is asked for?
Why do schools make us write ‘poems’ with a limited topic?
Poems that is asked by someone is just words with rhythm
Poems that one writes by themselves is poetry
So why limit us to a small topic,
What if our soul’s are screaming something else?
So why write ‘poems’ if it’s not a poem?
So why call ‘poetry’ poetry at school?"

With continued writing, eventually every poet uses writers block as a theme. lol Yeah, schools are lame, and educations one evilly.
