Muse of mine I cannot hold you now
I cannot keep you ever in my sight
Infrequent thing, you crease my worried brow
When you flee quietly into the night
I need you by my side through every day
Not fleeting aid when strange fancy alights
But oh nights when your pity goes my way
We rise ourselves...
In your embrace I stay so willingly
Your curling arms, your sultry voice, you’re cold
You’re dangerous, I fear you’re killing me
By being deep and dark and strong and bold
I fear for life for love for ticking time
I fear no one will hold me when you’re gone
And so I put my love for you in rhyme...
