Despite being described as

Filled with passion,

An artist requires inspiration,

Like the kind that wrote

The world's greatest literature or

Most hearttouching music had.

Having to spend so much time

Searching for something

May lead to fleeting success,

Leaving its hopelessness behind

So the only songs we hear

Are about heartbreak or

Simple pleasures of the Earth while

Art remains as the investigation

Of will versus spirit,

Through all of the drama and

Romantic idealism or delusion,

To one day find that source of

Infinite magic, calling it a muse.

So much more than epiphany or

Desire for something unattainable,

Knowing there has already been

Dozens of my own poems written,

I find my passion, my inspiration,

My light, my fire,

My muse,

In you.
