Songwriting

I don't have too much to say today, but for the sake of keeping my blog updated as much as possible I am gonna write whenever I think about it!

Those of you who know me know that I like to call myself a songwriter. Well in reality I have fully written 8-10 songs (minus music). I haven't written a song in months. I believe the last one I wrote was called I Wait which I wrote in late August/early September 2009. That is a really long time for me to have writer's block. I have 4 months worth of stuff piled up inside of me that I need to get out. But its just not working. I have a whole slew of song ideas, including a whole series about the guy I like; however, when I try to go any further there are no words to flesh out the ideas.

I always write songs about love. Isn't that weird since I have never actually been in love? And now that I currently like someone I find it harder to write love songs. It should be kind of easy, he gave me plenty to work with; but there is nothing. No verses, no chorus, no rhymes, no bridge, no melodies...just flat undeveloped ideas. Ugh, does anyone else know what this is like? I can't be the only one out there with sever writer's block!
