Inspiring Words Unused

reluctantly
I began
my quest of
the beloved myth
to find
fearless love
everlasting
a compelling wish
of rare hunger
with the impact
of inspiration
none to compare

Oh boy ! ... to have 'leftovers' is a great treat !

You can have a poetic feast with those 'unused' words ...
or save 'em up for a rainy night and
invite us all over for an 'inspiring' party !

I enjoyed this although I'm under the opinion sometimes lately that such things are myths.

I especially loved your title, as well as the entire piece, Helen.

Please, could you lent some of your unused inspiring words to me? I seemed to be always short of them.  

Love your poem.
