She asks for wisdom.

I beg for patience.

She demands purpose.

I pray towards independence.

Her cries plead for love.

My words are ignored.

Her tears call for hope.

My labors are brush close

The Muse thanks him for all.

He asks for a single song.

The Muse lives elsewhere.

He is left silent.

You are the light.

My eyes cannot see.

You are the truth.

My heart cannot bear.

What do they bring?

What hopes don't they take?

What times don't they waste?

All and none.

They ask for help.

I give it.

They ask for work.

I make it.

They ask for life.

And we share it.

Though distant.

Though sometimes forgot.

All wants are shared.

All friendships repaid.
