Where Is My Muse?
A restless night
A hot Summer sweat
I dreamed you came to my door
I would not let you in
You rang and banged
Like the wolf of Goldilocks
Huffing and puffing
You blew my house in
And I thought
My what big lungs you have
All the better to read you poems with my dear
Was your sly reply
And so I lay back in my bed
You read and read and read and read
Poetry of love and some of death
You read some poems I could not hear
Or was it the silence of my fear?
My voice was silent to make you stay
And no more poems flowed from my pen
For stopping you might mean the end
Then once again I would be alone
Until your soothing voice came to my phone
To caress my ear and touch my heart
My passion for you feels like a sin
A locket sealed to lock it in
Until the clock strikes there is no ring
Where is my phone, where is my poem
Where is my muse, she hides alone
Fly back to me, spread your wings
A hot Summer sweat
I dreamed you came to my door
I would not let you in
You rang and banged
Like the wolf of Goldilocks
Huffing and puffing
You blew my house in
And I thought
My what big lungs you have
All the better to read you poems with my dear
Was your sly reply
And so I lay back in my bed
You read and read and read and read
Poetry of love and some of death
You read some poems I could not hear
Or was it the silence of my fear?
My voice was silent to make you stay
And no more poems flowed from my pen
For stopping you might mean the end
Then once again I would be alone
Until your soothing voice came to my phone
To caress my ear and touch my heart
My passion for you feels like a sin
A locket sealed to lock it in
Until the clock strikes there is no ring
Where is my phone, where is my poem
Where is my muse, she hides alone
Fly back to me, spread your wings
