The pain of being a student

Staring at an empty screen,
trying to gather the strength to make that first move.
It just takes one word, and then usually another follows.
But the effort it takes to type that first word,

wishing someone else could do it for you.
One word,
that's all it takes to get started.
And the rest will follow...
