Just can't do it, and I never have been able to. Well, I should say that I never have been able to write anything that's not laughably trite.
I can compose music in my head, but there are never any words there. It's like I have a big hole in my brain where the "lyricist" function belongs.
I'm otherwise literate - in fact, I've made a living writing technical prose, and quite well I think. And I've done some free-form poetry that was OK, but could not have easily or naturally been formed to any rhthym pattern.
It's kind of like having an eye for color coordination or an innate ability to draw things from the mind's eye - you either have it, or you don't. And for lyrics - I don't!
That's my daily confession. As you were!
