#missing muse

( for my friend)

Ever lose a muse,

well where haven't you been lately?

I bet she is there

enjoying art, having drinks,

getting some me time,

after you hurt her feelings

by ignoring her,

gone on the delayed lake trip

you promised but never took.

My muse has moved to a land far, far away without any kind of forwarding address and while I have the best of intentions every time I sit down on my computer to write (which admittedly isn’t as often as it once way) it seems that the writing gods no longer favor me. Whether the absence of my muse is because of my muse winning the fantastical muse lottery or simply getting bored with me as a potential writer after quite some time I fear my muse may never return. It’s a horrible, ugly, self loathing beast that replaces your muse when you sit staring aimlessly at a computer screen and nothing comes from it. I’ve tried opening up old files, reading different things, yet my muse has simply relocated somewhere unknown to me (perhaps in the muse relocation program). I’m devoid of any good ideas or inspiration and it sucks. It seems as though everyone else I talk to has a hard working muse to work with cheering them on and inspiring great art, but mine has vanished. Perhaps she didn’t like my personality, found me to be boring or simply too self-loathing. Either way I’m at a standstill and could use some kind of inspiration to spark an interest in her potential return. Any suggestions?

Alright guys, I know I said I would be on all day today, but my muse is dwindling and I REALLY need to work on my book. So I’m going to go do that for a few hours while I wait for Harry to come back to me!
