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

Wonderful JML...I really like your descriptions in this of what you felt afterwards...

             Yours truly,

humming madly
filling my head
with blood
and sorrow
and dread

Hang on indeed hon, you should find a muse that'll never leave you, ie a friend like I did. They will always be there for you.
Felt your pain in this one, sorry hon *hugs*

May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

are you trying to make me cry...
your so sensitve and sweet...let me help you find your muse...(smile)
stalking you always,
jm

Now for me some words come easy
But I know that they don't mean that much
Compared with the things that are said when lovers touch
You never knew what I loved in you
I don't know what you loved in me
Maybe the picture of somebody you were hoping I might be

JML...

Your pain and agony show in this one all too well. . . losing your muse can indeed be quite painful. . .

I have learned that there were 9 muses. . .so why can't I have that many? And they don't have to be people either (as some may think!!)

Perhaps, she wasn't your muse. . . a muse stays with you. . . even after the loss. . .

Powerful writing my friend. . .
