So you want me to write a poem
And you want me to write it now
You see, I want to write this poem
But I don’t know how

I don’t know how to rhyme
And I don’t know how to flow
So I cannot write this poem
That you have wanted so

This was cleverly written. And I understand what you mean; I often have very complex feelings and ideas in my mind but don't know how to incorporate them into poetry. This poem, on the very subject, is very rhythmic; well done!
