You've used the word love

Also the word hate

Been known to arouse

And to aggravate

-

Gentle as a lamb

Cruel like a shark

You showed me the light

Cast me to the dark

-

Words jumped on the page

Poems wrote themselves

Faster and faster

Filling the bookshelves

-

Then it was all gone

Nothing more to say

No more black and white

Just colorless gray

-

You're now just a friend

I no longer use

To write once again

I'll need a new muse
