Death of Muse
I became every person I was warned not to be. It was beautiful until the very end
We are not our choices but we are are most definitely our consequences.
I'm thankful for so much because now I know I can
I used to wonder with envy for others imagining who I would become when I finally encountered love
It was even better than I dreamt it to be.
I was blessed beyond measure.
But even forever is finite in the face of this life.
The void is proof I was there for every moment, every whisper, every giggle and every smile.
We live with regrets but this time I have none. I will be happy again when fault is not at the forefront of my mind.
I wish we had more time, now I really do sound like everyone else.
I'm glad it was you, even if it was for a while.
Farewell my muse, we had a hell of a ride.
