I think my muse is broken
I no longer hear his call
What a finicky creature
He only comes around
When my heart is aching
Why do I never see him
When laughter has me in thrall?
Why is he not there when
Love is blooming brightly?
Does all that sunshine blind him?
I miss the wretched beasty
Just not badly enough to want
To go out and get my heart
Trampled upon once more
To bring him back to me.
Stupid Muse
I think my muse is broken
I no longer hear his call
What a finicky creature
He only comes around
When my heart is aching
Why do I never see him
When laughter has me in thrall?
Why is he not there when
Love is blooming brightly?
Does all that sunshine blind him?
I miss the wretched beasty
Just not badly enough to want
To go out and get my heart
Trampled upon once more
To bring him back to me.

How true! Mostly, I can only write when I'm trying to impress a girl, but it's the same deal. :-) I'm not sure about your use of "finicky" but that's the only jarring note for me. Great work!
