Tragic Comedy, or Hilarious Tragedy?

I have been suffering ---
a good many things.
But more importantly and noted, is the writer's block.
.
.
.
I can't think
straight
I can't w
right.
I know why
My mind's occupied
Obsessed with a certain feeling
Which has poems, novels, epics,
songs, symphonies, soliloquies
all devoted to making it known
To those who know
Who have felt it
I feel it
.
.
.
I want you
I want you to share this with me
I want us to be one, united, alone
Underneath, within and above the sun
It is so beautiful
It is
So
Divinely
Beautiful...
In awe,
Bowing, thinking
we knelt face
to face
.
.
.
Couldn't you see it
Standing there with me?
I guess this is
my soliloquy
.
.
.
Alone, this seems no longer
An hilarious tragedy
Without you to share it,
I am a very tragic comedy.
That's what I think about
Why I can't w
right?
All I see is the space
Empty, hanging
Between the day
and night
your love
and my fright.
I've risked it all
and liked it
I understand
w...
right?

Write, write, write
Write it all down
Write it before you forget
Write, write, write
If you don't keep a record
If you don't write it down
How will you let the lesson sink
Down in through your crown
Your heavy, tight, thorned iron crown
Write it all down
Before your body burns to the ground
.

My words
My life
Will be
An Hilarious
Tragedy
This much
I guarantee
