Oh Muse



Oh Muse divine, hear my plea,
As I pour out my heart to thee.
From all the sad songs I've sung,
My soul feels heavy, my heart is wrung.

Yet, through the tears and the pain,
A new melody begins to reign,
A song of hope, a song of light,
That pierces through the darkest night.

From the depths of my despair,
You lifted me up and showed me care.
Through your inspiration and your grace,
I found the strength to rise and face.

The challenges that life doth bring,
With every note, my heart doth sing.
And though the road ahead is long,
I know that with you, I'll stay strong.

For you are the fire that ignites,
The passion that fuels my writes.
And with each passing day that goes by,
I know that with you, I'll never die.

Oh Muse divine, hear my song,
And let my words ring loud and long.
For through the power of your touch,
I know that I will never clutch.

To the sadness of days gone by,
But instead, I'll reach for the sky.
And with your guidance, I will find,
The peace and joy that comes to mind.

From all the sad songs I've sung,
A new chapter in my life has begun.
And though the journey may be tough
I know that with you, I'll rise above.
