WRITING OBSTACLE

Submitted by EliseKK

Write a short story about a character getting excited to do something that is usually considered mundane.

Describe how the task makes them feel, and hint at why this is so exciting for them.

Longing

The frustration of longing

It’s like you’re never listening

No matter what I say

But your eyes are glistening


I’m sorry I couldn’t be all you expected of me

It’s so hard to accept

I’ll never be the perfect man

Long drive home

But your arms don’t feel the same

Here it goes

Out the window

It’s all for show


It’s like pulling out the rug

From under my own feet

No matter how hard I stand

I’ll always miss the beat


Couldn’t make it here

No I could never bear

The immense weight

Of this relationship I wear

Poo
