    The spring of my creativity has dried up
    and my mind is
    now an arid parchment
    waiting for a torrent of inspiration,
    for new thoughts to sprout…
    for bright ideas to blossom...
    for right words to mellow…

    But as days go by,
    I’m tormented by the heat of anxiety
    from an overcast mind;
    And
    all I can produce is a storm of feelings that
    cloud my intellect,
    derange my senses, and
    Choke me to an annoying silence!!!

    My barren imagination
    Cannot be treated by ivfs
    For I can produce only my own
    No, I’m not averse to others’ productions
    In fact I revel reading them
    Yet I cannot borrow from an"other"
    And pass off as my own
    Whether as an intentional plagiarism
    Or as an acknowledged surrogacy!

    I need to think, feel and articulate
    To Unhinge the silence
    That longs to be broken!

    And free the word that fears to be born!

    When you think there's nothing inspiring, and you crave to write something a beautiful poem like this comes out :) :thumbsup . Been there so...it was a good read.

    Had to do it to overcome my writer's block.. it helped to some extent, actually to a great extent☺This short piece was the first in the list of writing tasks I gave myself to remove the block and plunge into research writing... thank you for the feed back☺
