My Muse

You were just a muse,
 Now you are dried and gone,
Did I love you or just use,
 The star I hung my dreams upon?

I used to praise you daily,
 Steadfast in every action,
Steadfast as comet Hayley,
 Now you are a distraction.

Did I give up too quickly?
 The waiting hurt my pride.
Should I have waited until sixty?
 Waited 'til I died?

With you, all knew I was obsessed.
Inspiration at its best.
