I give you my hands, our lives entwined
I give you my kiss to make you mine.
I give you my heart, to soothe its strife
I give you my blood and all my life.
I give you my dreams, that we'll fulfil
I give you my love, always so real.
"you cannot force my muse" she said
reluctant to conform to the want
she said as she typed those words
one after another onto the pristine page
leaving small black hieroglyphics
for others to interpret behind her.
"you cannot force my muse" she said
adding to the wealth of words
and thoughts she'd already committed
over the years from teenager onwards
outpourings of emotion and need
for others to interpret behind her.
"you cannot force my muse" she said
and submitted her words and thoughts
to the criticisms of those who watched
and judged and applauded and scoffed
at the byproduct of her muse's force
which others interpreted behind her.

Great poem!
Only applause, not scoff!
The muse surely was with you!
