The Inspirationist
Time is wind, flowing through me
Some inspire me to fly
Push against my senses
Take that bottomless leap into nothingness
At the edge of the precipice
Any help can seem dangerous
Yet some leaps of faith
Have nets to catch you at the bottom
That is what he felt like
A net, support surrounded by falling
He pushed me off a cliff
To take the trip I had longed for
It was his job, his calling
To be an Inspirationist
Curly haired, brown-eyed soul that spoke softly
But meant volumes to my ears
He helped me find a voice
Within a deafening white silence
A dark beam cutting through the light
My very own Inspirationist
He gave my soul away to writing
My dilipitated heart left bleeding on a page
Pouring out my hidden feelings
My very own Inspirationist
Pulling away the magic curtain
Revealed the secret trade
Penmanship and words hidden from my view
I smile today because I had you
My very own Inspirationist.
