Looking For a Muse

Give me something to write about,
Become my muse.
Give me a song
Give me a note
Give me a story,
Become my inspiration.
Show me something that will teach me
Give me a lesson 
Give me a lecture
Talk to me
Play for me a melody
Help me find the words,
Become my foundation.
Show me the way
Give me thoughts that will consume me
Give me a theme 
Give me a reason
Give me knowledge
Help me find the words to fill this page
Show me a new light
Give me a new perspective
Give me an expression
Show me a gentle gesture,
Become my thunder
Let these words roar from the page
I want them all to hear
My feelings will no longer be concealed
They are now left to the world
My life is now on display,
If you could only read this page…..
