I'll be Back

My Dear Muse, 
 I'm wracked with guilt 
when i say this: 
You are a mistress 
i can ill-afford to indulge, 
a lover so demanding 
that my jealous wife, 
Responsibility, hisses that 
i should repent for 
all the time lost in 
chasing your tantalising hints.
Oh! Don't leave me, my spurned lover!
I'll be back.

  1. The Muse will wait, kiddo - it has waited for me, sometimes, for years. Good luck with your exams, study hard and let us know how you do, okay?

  2. I feel this way a lot of the time. Hopefully it won't get tired one of these days and leave forever! Great personification.
