Muse

In the instant of thought

 an inaudible whisper sneaks through

 the dark energy of the night 

seeking a destination devoid of physical space

In just one breath

A Sweet inhalation is caught

Tasted

On your tongue moistened lips

Captured

In the back of your throat where it

Resides until the end of time

An essence of a scent

That lingers in memory

Quickening

Thickening

Saturating your soul

From the Inside Out

Radiating Warmth with tingling invisible

 fingertips forever trapped

beneath your skin

In the penetrating healing power of

Beautiful energy

Lurks a Muse

An eloquent fantasy in the

Distant recesses of your mind

Floating slowly to the surface

Music is held captive in the satin roots

Of impending desire where softened edges

Conceal the secret treasure hidden beneath

Your folded layers

Protecting the inaudible whispers

Of your answers

A returning exhalation

Captured on parted lips

Fantasy etched in silhouette

The secrets of your Muse
