Alone in the house
All I can think to do is sit
Sit on my chair
Stare at the blank screen
The computer sitting in front of me
Hoping an idea will pop into my head
Nothing comes
And all I can think to do is sit
So boring it seems
Sitting and thinking
Hoping for an answer
Something not like a typical dream
And I will wait for the time to come
But now, all I can think to do is sit

I am supposed to be working on a memoir for a school project, but I can't decide on one thing to write about. Of course, I think to come here and get some creative juices flowing, and this is what I came up with.
