Sitting in the cafe, you turn your head
Glancing in her direction
You've seen her before
Tonight you'll say hello

Now the nerves start
Your mouth dries up
You couldn't talk if you wanted
Knees are weak

Now's the time
You're going to do it
You turn back towards her

She's gone.

My muse has returned
Inspiration renewed
I'll keep the words flowing
All because of you

Darkness approaching
Sun has now set
Fatigue taking over
Time now for bed.

My muse no longer visits me
I know not where she's gone
No words now swirling in my brain
I cannot take this for long

Please come and visit again
Your presence brings me peace
Without you I shall struggle
My brain unleashed a beast

I write or rather scribble
My words all skewed and trash
Until you return to me,
Writing,this is the last.

Two doves are cooing
On a branch at my window
Wonderful songs sung

All around me hopelessness
I try to climb out
It tries to pull me back down

Struggle,struggle pull pull
Almost out
I can see the light above

Almost out,CRASH!
Pulled back down
I start to think
What's the point
Why keep trying


The darkness overtakes me
It has won
I'm done trying

I see beauty in a sunrise
Hear music in the breeze
You only get so many
So treasure all of these

When my time here is ended
I know that I will miss
The beauty in each sunrise
And the music on the wind

I hope before I leave here
The words that pass my lips
Are I'm so glad I lived this long
To witness all of this

Alone
With my thoughts
In the dark
Of the night

Moonless
Starless
Dreams now take flight

I dream of tomorrow
And of days long since past
I sit in the dark
Alone here at last

I once wanted peace
And quiet within
Now I know loneliness
And quiet within

I want sunlight
And warmth from another
Chaos and laughter
I want my true lover
