Curse

I have quite simply just not been able to,
Stop writing prose, It has been going on for days,
So why all the weird and wonderful words?
Put together in so many weird and most wonderful ways,
Poems about love and pain, or the world and you.

I have not written like this for many years,
Don't know why, all of a sudden I've got all lyrical,
So from where did the words come?
Some of them are sad, some are funny and satirical,
Poems to make you grin, or drive you to tears.

I have forgotten the rules of lyric and verse,
Can't put in this word or that one doesn't quite sit,
So will it all just suddenly end?
When I come upon a word that just doesn't fit,
Poems that rhyme,on my page perhaps it's a curse?
