A Muse on the Loose

Accidental Poet



 

"Matter of Time"

from the movie “Eddie & the Cruisers- Eddie Lives”

by John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band

 

The silence was deafening

The emptiness mysterious

Leaving me to question

My mind lost and delirious

 

My closest of allies

A dear internal friend

The turning of my lyrical wheels

Of who I sincerely depend

 

Missing in action

My muse nowhere in sight

I’m left all alone

On such a lonely night

 

As I wait on

A festive reunion

I must rely

On poetic intuition

 

Teachings of inner peace

Believing in myself

Tapping into

My own inner wealth

 

Resisting the urge

To become a recluse

Waiting upon return

A Muse on the loose

    A fine write AP.
    I thought it was about when I stopped singing - for 5 seconds! lol.

    hope that muse and you
    collide soon
    and your festive season
    is as merry, as you
    want it to be,
    thanks for sharing, dear poet

        Thanks Sax. Trying to keep my writing skills sharp, but without my Muse it's much harder. 😆

        That Muse was only having time to itself, it is back now and all is well AP.

            We all, the introvert, the recluse
            Need a push, an encouragement, a muse

            But I see you are doing well though

            • Accidental Poet

              I have my moments, 😁. Thanks Suresh.
