Missing Muse

I'm not amused
It's overload
My brain is fused

At 4am
I miss my friend
Insomnia will never end

The poet's lot: a search for meaning
Unpolished thoughts
Need feathers preening

The cluttered  room
Inside my brain
A Springtime dust, again

But what of heart?
In darkest night -
Does bird of love take flight?

A prayer I claim..
Dear Lord of sleep
Protect my heart and soft soul keep

From calloused outer
Worn, or lost
Inspire once more.. despite the cost
