Monologue of a Muse

When you call my name
Know that I was never here
I was the echo of a dream
Bred of a half remembered tear

I was the seed of your insanity
Pure beauty in your eyes
A goddess in need of saving
That plucked the stars out of the skies

I flickered in the torchlight
As you scribed the words of me
Poured your ink into my empty veins
Set the demon of me free

I am the greatest of addictions
Your need to write my all
Undress me in words of angels
Then document my fall

But now you see you held a rainbow
As empty as the breeze
And nothing gives you comfort
Now I bring you to your knees

I torture you in memories
Show what might have been
I whisper in your ear at night
Tease you till you scream

I am unblemished desire
That your longing can't fulfill
Your greatest inspiration
The creation of your will

Am I a muse worth saving
Or the devil in disguise
Only you can tell me
I'm all thats in your eyes
