I found her sitting in my chair
Dreamy eyes, without a care
Messed up hair, oh, what a sight!
She must have stayed awake all night
Computer screen filled with her words
Some of them, seemed quite absurd
Verses filled, with sky and sea
Lost, in poetic dichotomy
I look again and find her gone
It’s only me, who sits alone
In front of a screen, I am confused
I seem to have misplaced my muse

I love how this begins… really did make me want to know more about the context of the poem… I must say I love the artwork above it… did you create it yourself? Hope to see some more new things from you soon!
