My muse has deserted me

Never before have I been so blind
As darkness fills the void in my mind
Not until I am deserted by she,
Who used to be my best friend
Now she’s a million miles away
And I lose my grip every day
Is this the beginning or the end?
Just another one
With wheels come undone
No more races to run
In the setting of the sun

My muse has deserted me

And took with her my thoughts
Leaving only traces of my heart
Memories of the one I used to be
No more dark spectre mistress
No more flowers of grey
No more words to say
And ignorance is not bliss
It feels like a heart attack
As if my spirit wracked
I know I’ll never get it back
I know now there is only black

My muse has deserted me

It is always darkest just before dawn. You will make it thru the void and come out a better person and poet.

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

Thy muse, dear sir, plays
peek - a - boo
of the heart, perhaps off
to find the sun
or to bring thee a rainbow
of delight
thy muse, dear sir,
not gone long from sight
why dream, dear sir
and she shall
appear,
again, this night....
