Marked by Your Muse is a sensual, lingering reflection on intimacy and memory. The poem explores the lasting imprint of passion—both physical and emotional—through evocative imagery of touch, scent, and time. As the speaker repositions their hourglass, they are content with the permanence of once thought to be a fleeting encounter. Some marks fade, but others remain, etched into memory forever.

Marked by Your Muse

You left some muse on my neck.

I erase it away with a concealer pen–

You were my sultry secret

Now, you’re my forever friend.

Your inspiration never ends–

I keep repositioning my hour glass

As I tilt with the touch of your hand

Waiting to see how long you’ll last

In my memory- time does not surpass

I muse to the thought of

Your scent.

Your skin.

Your sweat.

The mark you’ve made

Never fades…
