sad the muse
sleeping muse
muse Calliope of epic poetry
muse Melponmene of tragedy
tragedy and a child mournful
tragedy born in childhood
cannot tell
will not tell
tell how this child was inspired
tell why words fill her dreams
dreams that swirl within
dreams that torture the night
on paper the child writes
this paper
paper
paper that bleeds with words
words pour out sadness
words dripping deep pain
a child doomed to tears
sad the tears
tears of deep sadness
tears rich with blood
blood and poems intertwined
blood that the muses desire
please you ask show
to us show
show us how to comfort her
show us why she has this skill
skill the Lord above bestowed
skill only the fly on the wall observes
a child poet
little poet
poet of a thousand words
poet of dancing prose
prose inspired by life
prose elegant and beautiful
poetry
poetry
poetry of rhyme and lyric one day to be
poetry that tells a story
story of a journey
story of a shattered heart
cannot tell
will not tell
tell you how the child spins the words
tell how words became writing
writing that leaves beauty
writing always leaving sad tears
tears of the innocent . . .
tears fall as I realize the child dreaming is me . . .
