An Ode to my Muse


My muse, my dear,

You’ve gotten me here

And for that forever I’m grateful.

 

However, my queen,

I can’t set you free,

Without you I won’t be successful.

 

So thank you, my muse,

Just a thing that I use

So stay here, locked away tight

 

Perhaps one day

I’ll find another to play

Once I’ve used you for my own delight.

My name is Maddie Starks. I love creative writing, and I live in Greenville, South Carolina. When I'm not writing poetry, I spend my time playing the guitar and singing. I enjoy writing poems that display the intrinsic value that words naturally hold. As; you read through my poetry, I'd like to emphasize the difference between the author and the narrator :)
