A Muse
Heart and soul, you touch me
Regardless of whether or not you’ll ever know
I have been breathing you
Turned on the lights in my darkened soul
And never again will I stand to be kept in the dark
My light smothered, my spirit closed
A free spirit now you released me
Tremble as you whisper in my ear
Though it’s not really you at all
Your energy comes over me
Like a ghost with good intentions
Constant love reaches between us
A stream created by a spiritual mystery
Know that I send you my love and light
And hope for everything you wish for
A sudden charge, a shock, a flash of energy
Finally hands me back my power
And I step in confident and beautiful and alive
Truly in my own power
I have only been a ghost of myself for too long
Your magnificence is my inspiration, my motivation
Your distant soul my safe haven
And beside you I disappear
Into an obscurity I am happy to be lost in
Endlessly share your beauty
It lights fires in the hearts and minds of many
And makes me free to dream
Wherever that world is where you lose yourself
To follow for a glimpse, I would gladly
You already showed me
A new way to be.
