Blank Paper
by: EJ

I sit here staring,

Staring at a blank piece of paper,

It should be full of words,

But it is still blank,

I should be writing a paper,

But I don't know how to begin,

I wish someone would help me write,

On this blank paper,

But I'm suppose to write it myself,

The teacher sits and grades our homework from last night,

I could just ask for some help,

But I sit and stare at my blank piece of paper,

Maybe my imagination will come back to me,

Then the paper wouldn't be blank anymore.
