4 Muses,
Four Victories,
IV Failures,

Number 1, innocent I was
Taking me in,
Using me
Number I, The Fall of Innocence
You took me to the edge
You were thought to be
One
Yet you fall instead me,
Down the crack you created just for me

Number Two, eager for something more
something to take,
and give
Number 2, The Direction of Heart
You taught me the way
You might have been
One
Yet we part broken,
Yours will last a lifetime

Number 3, lust and lies
pushing for less,
needing more
Number III, The Self Destruction
You got what you deserved
So glad your not
One
You left with poison,
and no antidote exists

Number IV, realization of self
seeing my flaws,
in your deception
Number Four, The Anti Self
You lifted and let me fall,
Never again thinking you,
One
You taught more than you know,
and now sulk in your misery

Four of you entered my life
3 left for good, I stays for observation from the clouds
More lay in front of me,
some close
some far
Nothing more to do
than wait for my next Muse
