A story in my mind slowly unfolds
A gripping story that begs to be told
The characters lined up neatly in my brain
Clamor for my attention, pester me again and again
Their narratives ring in my ears, imploringly
To let them materialize on paper for everyone to see..
*
I have in my head the story outlined
I have the setting and the plot defined
My characters have complex roles assigned
I just need to put in words what I have in mind..
*
When I finally carve some time to write
A powerful writer’s block I have to fight
I write a few sentences, then lose interest
Another day, I decide, I would write the rest
But that day does not come, the story remains
Only in the gyri and sulci of my brain..
Passion...unbridled
