They're All Gonna Laugh at You
I think I've finally figured out
The reason I can't write
Apparently my pen's in shock
From what I wrote last night
Desire stirred my heart awake
To write of love in rhyme
And passion missed upon my lips
Agreed that it was time
'Your pen will only get confused'
My voice of Reason said
'You need to stick to what you know
And write of love that's dead'
I reasoned with my Reasoning
And yes, of course, I won 
After which my Logic said,
'Oh this just can't be done'
When Lunacy said, 'Hurry up'
Impatience had to snicker
And though I never said a word
I still could hear them bicker
I think it was Insanity
Who said, 'She can't be wrong'
Since Logic tried convincing me
Love sings a tragic song
And when I tried to write about
How love could never end
Well, that is when I heard a laugh
Come from my favorite pen
