Muse.
First, it's the headache that never goes away
Then, it's the ache that's in my bones
Later, it becomes the obsession that chases my thoughts away
Soonafter, it's the sweat I wipe off my brow...
And just like that, there's a pen in my hand and ink has spilled on the paper.
A combination of letters that form words that form sentences that--well, you get the idea
I can't say that I'm a genius at this because if that were true, maybe I didn't have to work that hard.
But I like to work hard because if my pen bleeds then that means that emotion was felt...
Tears were shed--of joy, of sorrow, of pain
Happiness was felt
Love was in the air. And then it evaporated like ice on a hot day in Texas.
The sky was a majestic purple during a sunset one day.
Whatever it is, whatever it was, I felt it and I wanted, no, I needed to express it.
It comes and goes, this gift of mine, but it does what it wants and who am I to deny the inspiration that has the ability to consume from within
