Empty Ink Wells

I have a lot of things I want to write about, but I'm just having a lot of difficulty finding or creating the inspiration to form those things into anything readable. I did write this the other day and I'm just going to post it for today's post. It probably needs reworked in either version, but I need to post something today.

Trusted friend.
Valiant foe.
Frustration.
Release.
Wringing words
from nothing
when free-flowing verse
halts.
Smashing empty
ink wells
until they overflow.

(I had originally written it this way (below), but when I posted it I liked it better as written above. The above is the way I would normally write, but the version below was me trying to put myself in it. Which works better?)

My trusted friend.
My valiant foe.
My frustration.
My release.
Wringing words
from nothing
when free-flowing verse
halts.
I'm smashing empty
ink wells
until they overflow.
