Thug Nasty

My muse, my guiding star, the breath in my lungs;
whenever I speak it is your name that is always on the tip of my tongue.
When I first began writing poetry I could not make my voice be heard;
it wasn’t until I met you that my mind took flight and began to soar like a bird;
it wasn’t until I met you that I experienced true inspiration;
it wasn’t until I met you that I first had a poetic emanation-
it’s hard to describe: it was like being struck by lightning-
the more I thought about you the more poetry I began writing.
I hope that our paths will cross one day;
I look forward to meeting you and saying all the things that I have neglected to say.
I hope you and your family had a Christmas filled with happiness and cheer,
and I hope you have a great and a very Happy New Year!
