My Musings On My Missing Muse

I try to write about the plight

Of musings lost within a maze

And though my muse is out of sight

I’m long since lost within her gaze

x

You know, I’m so much dust ablaze

It almost seems myself I raze

But at the seams I come apart

When I cannot control my heart

x

I should have known it from the start

That I would lose my voice to you

I’m helpless to your playful art

You help me to see things anew

x

I wonder if your words are true

And ponder paths I might pursue

But I don’t know just where you are

Or how you shine bright like a star

x

And with my mind I start to spar

For inspiration eludes me

And your silence becomes a scar

Another way that I’m not free
