Have the inspiration for a poem, but can't write

[Gekkeiju]

I wanted to write a farewell poem to a friend, though now he has left and I only have a couple stanzas. I know what I want the message to portray, but the wording is so difficult. Anyone have some techniques for coming up with that sort of thing?

i hate it when that happens. what i do is just write whatever, even though it doesn't make sense. later when i actually see what i have written, i say: "Oh, this is how i want it to look," or "this is how i want that said." but then, that's just what i do... it makes sense, to me at least. good luck!

One word: Thesaurus. Sorry, I'm not much good on the inspiration thing.
