Muse Memories
Riding to your house after work on a Thursday night
"Kissin' you" by Total plays, now my mind is filled with delight
At the time I was only 17 and very inexperienced
My love life was in trials, so all I did was experiment
And through that, you marked me as yours to keep
Having me seek your company every week
You taught me that everyone will not accept my style
But you did, so we connected after a while
Knowing I was into writing, you gave me a push of motivation
Once I was at your house, I was treated with love persuasions
Yeah I know I'm not ready
And you knew this already
There was never any rush, so our friendship held steady
Then it became discovered
My audience... There was another
Man involved in her life
After confessing that she'll soon be his wife
I crumbled at her words
The situation was a curse
By all things that I've dealt with, this had to be the worst
So I left without a notice
Hoping she wouldn't notice
Thinking, "Why did I do this to myself? I'm weak now and she knows this".
Well now I've built off of that
3 years later, poetry is where I'm aiming at
As for her, she's now a lovely wife with a wonderful husband
Even today, we still mention our past mysterious loving.
