Write a song? Sorry, I don't even play an instrument. But you could just take a break for a while then come back and play it. Like with some video games, I'll play it a lot then won't play it for a long time then when I start playing it again I want to play it non-stop.

You link him a Peter Frampton video for inspiration to play the guitar? That's like inspiring a Britney Spears to be sane... it's just not worth trying.
You want inspiration, watch this:

Same with me. I'm all for playing a game nonstop, then I'll not want to play it at all for a while. Then I'll get back into it and play it again.
I think writing a song would be a good idea, listen to some of your favorite songs and learn to play their songs. Although you might have already done this.

Well, I play several instruments, and I never practice, the only time I seem to get the drive is when I listen to music that appeals to me, be it old or new.
Try exploring new music and discovering stuff you didn't know before, might inspire you to practice, also, do you have a guitar stand? I am more likely to start playing if my guitar is already out in the open, I've practiced a lot more since I got my acoustic guitar (which sits against my wall).

Learn a John Mayer song like Vultures or Slow Dancing in a Burning Room.
