Every artist needs his muse...be it a woman, an object in nature, etc.  Beauty can be found everywhere and anywhere, it depends on what you are looking for.  Beauty exists in a voice, a touch, a look and the connection you have with another person.  Beauty is whatever you want it to be...there can even be beauty in destruction.  Beauty gives us freedom to express, and therefore create beauty ourselves.  Beauty is something you cannot define without expressing something else.  Beauty is an appreciation of love,  a necessity of happiness, and the foundation of a relationship.  There, in the moments spent with a lover, or a friend, or a family member, beauty shines its brightest and energizes the soul. Beauty is created with a kiss, a hug, a caressing stroke.  Beauty is an emotion expressed in subtle form.  From the vibrant color of a flower, to the elegant construction of a bridges, to the astounding efficiency of a computer.  Emotion is beauty expressed in physical form.  To love, to hate, to sympathize, to empathize...all are beautiful in that way they are created, and can be beautiful in the was they are expressed - it is all dependent on the artist, the audience, and the medium. 

For me beauty is in music and beauty is in poetry.  My beauty i express with singing, playing, and writing, my beauty i share, my beauty i give to all.  My beautiful gives me courage, the beauty i see makes me strong.  The beauty i enjoy lifts my spirit, my beauty ignites my song.  The beautiful i hold is sweet and caring, the beauty i desire i see when i slumber.  I'd give everything for the beauty i see, i would do anything for the beauty that inspires me.  Beauty is in a woman, in her eyes and in her voice.  Beauty is in her touch, her kiss, in her choice.  Her choice is enigmatic - a puzzle to complex for man.  But her choice is beautiful, her choice is wonderful, her choice brings beauty to this man.

For me beauty is music and beauty is in poetry.  For me beauty is in a woman, for she expresses music and poetry, for she inspires my music and poetry, for she gives me my music and my poetry, for she IS my music and my poetry.  

For me my muse is a woman, my muse is a song, my muse is a poem.
My muse is all of those in one.
This beauty, this feeling so benign
Her grace, an angel so divine
A love I should not have, but cannot deny
My strength fails, my emotions fly
As soon as she enters the room
I feel my heart - boom, buh-boom
A deafening drum, a drowning drone
Hoping to speak to her, yet wishing we were alone
Feeling myself fall for her
Wanting to do everything with her
I can already feel the sorrow
I'm already fighting back the tears
I'll need to ignore the thought of her tomorrow
Must follow the rules set out over the years
Can't push too much, too far
My heart would be left with naught but a scar
Too deep to give up, too cautious to give in
Each road is a loss - What path must I take to win?
Trying to be a man and finding I'm still scared like a child
My heart tears me in two, my mind runs wild
Afraid to fail, yet determined to succeed
So hard to give up an emotion you need
For love her I do
And miss her I do
Hold her I will
And kiss her I will
If not today, perhaps tomorrow
So my mind will race, but no self-pity or sorrow
Ask and thou shalt receive
Know and truly believe
I've got everything I need to be victorious
The first time was amazing, the next - Glorious
Many an hour will have passed
But this fire was built to last
A passion brought forth from deep inside
Discovered by a woman - Beautiful and Kind
Strong and Brave, Tender and Loving
She set my heart ablaze and my mind running
Stunning yet subtle
She knows just how to make me crumble
A work of art Da Vinci could not touch
Her surpassing beauty remains as such
No blemish or imperfection
Just look in her eyes - feel the connection
To the world of the divine, the beauty of perfection

So I surrender to you, I surrender to this emotion, Even though I shouldn't, I said that I wouldn't.
But I know that when I sleep tonight, I will dream of you
Tonight I am with you - If only in a dream
But tomorrow is a new day
And new days give life to the dream

May the Dream I have tonight
Become the Reality I live tomorrow


There is nothing more amazing, wonderful, or intoxicating than the passionate kiss of a woman.
