Poetry walking away

Poetry walking away

A Poem by Lilaa

It has been day three and 
I have been powerless to 
write poetry,words falter 
about my mind like a stray cat
on the streets of Ohio

My mind is a war zone, each
center picking at each other 
like a stack of hungry bull ants,
memories congregate leaving my 
heart feeling futile and my paper
blank, emptier each time I stare at it

Could this be the end of my poetry?
All these exasperating questions 
running in and out of my mind, like
children at a candy store 

My heart sinking, my energy decaying 
my hobbies whisking off to a strangers 
page, this must be the struggle of poetry
