The Inspired One

This is my first attempt at non-rhyming poetry. I'm not even sure I'm done writing it.

The Inspired One

by Jodi Stephenson



The Inspired One frequents my conscious mind
Taking total command
The words he speaks are masterful
Breathing life into my veins
Softly caressing my soul
With the gentle stroke of an artist’s hand
Enlightening my mind and opening my heart
To possibilities that remain

His visions are sheer genius
Brilliant as the blazing red sunset
The sound of his voice sets my body aflame
Igniting my passion with melodies painfully exquisite
Instruments willingly succumb to his touch
Igniting like sparks at his fingertips

I am captivated by his presence
His warm blue eyes fixate on me
Ecstasy washes over me as our lips touch
A prelude to unceasing depths of bliss
Our bodies become entwined
In the heights of rapturous pleasure
A harmonious crescendo of symbiosis
Fueled by the fire of love's fervor

Now our love is made complete
My Inspired One slips away
Like the tide rushing in to greet its coveted shore
Returning to its cherished sea
A rude awakening from this sensual dream
