lost muse

topic posted Tue, June 12, 2007 - 11:15 PM by  allure
repeatedly I return
to the corners you once dwelled
words sprinkled upon clouds
dancing in harmony
souls knew
what was to come
where am I to find my muse
when time has buried you
from my reach
I seek yet an inspiration
to find within a sculpture
a melodic poem
a sunrise peeking beyond
its radiance
allure uncovered in the velvet
touch of a rose
caressing the skin
if the muse is not to be found
does the spirit die of thirst
seeking life after life?
to be embraced by desire is
the muse that I crave

    a(muse) me

    I have found you
    there is no repetition
    rounding off the angles
    softer than speaking and the sky dances
    I do the steps we have memorized
    your spirit remembers me
    before the time we came, the time we knew
    I have no time to muse
    and you are my excavation
    from the ancestral cave
    I cannot touch a spirit
    softer than a sculpted curve
    the lyrics of your sonnet
    like rays of the dawning sun
    and a corona
    painted in velvet sky
    the petals of a rose in bloom
    softer then your skin upon mine
    when the music plays so soft
    my spirit quenches all our thirst
    this life is not the life that we have known...
    my passion reaches out to yours,
    desire is what we each have left
    the music is what we now crave
    and dancing is what we can do

    paint this image on the ceiling
    leave it for the time to come...
    you are the one -
    the painter I have become.
