Inspiration

A Poem by Jeff Miller

We all have our own aspirations

But none of them are able to come true without inspiration

Something intrudes our mind, our very spirit, that aggressively motivates our actions

Lately, I find that it's you that penetrates my membrane and removes some of the cobwebs that Black Widow left inside my mind

Some say my writing is sagacious

But, to me, those claims are outrageous

It's just the inspiration you instill in me

Not just the thoughts of we and meant to be's

You make the gray from my skies fade

Replaced by vivid, opulent pastels...the sorrow committed suicide

Leaving only hope and joy, what a superior trade

You are helping my dreams become realized

Suddenly the intangible rewards have materialized

I am starting to feel big

Not big as in weight or size...but colossal

As if every piece I write is essential and monumental

I only hope that this euphoric feeling will remain

And to take each praise as if it was a grain

Wow.. every person truly needs some form of inspiration from day to day.. a hug.. a kiss.. music.. favorite pasttimes.. spending time with the people we love! Here you speak of someone who judging by the amount of writings you have written (I am presuming they are for the same person) who clearly you have fallen for. What a wonderful feeling it is to first find love.. untarnished.. lifting.. do what you can to keep it as polished and fruitful as possible. I loved this as many of your other pieces.. you have a real fire in your writing.. very profound and inspirational in itself!

I love this writing, I smiled all the way through reading it! It's a wonderful feeling when we are in love and every thought in our mind can unfold into a poem, and when we let them; we can't help but make them rhyme too! very well written, I love it.

Brilliant! How wonderfully descriptive. I imagined myself alternately as the muse being addressed and as the narrator expressing this precious relationship.

This is pure, awesome, inspiration, I would say. You've inspired me... O_O
Anyway, I liked the line: Some say my writing is sagacious/But, to me, those claims are outrageous.
That's exactly how I feel about my writing sometimes...like, 'what the heck are you talking about; it's just a bunch of words!'
Great poem! [:

MUCH BETTER WRITE THAN THE LAST ONE I REVIEWED.....great ideas in this one!!
You are truly inspired by this inspiration!!

I love the line:

....some of the cobwebs that black widow left in my mind!

You just need to work on your rhyme words a bit...some sound like they rhyme, but actually don't
The concept of the poem is wonderful though!!

Don't stop writing!!!!!!
