"be quiet you'll wake it"
i whisper inside my head
the voices getting louder
and louder with each tap
my heart beat thundering
under my chest like a drum
"please" i beg "be quiet"
i know what will befall me
words spew from my fingers
to the paper before me
"ohhhh no" i scream
"you woke it....why ?"

This is interesting, I like what you turned the title into. I really like the idea and thoughts in this, though I think a bit more thought could have been given into the execution of it. Still a good poem though, well penned.

There are so many times I wish I could wake my muse. This is really cute and fun to read. I enjoyed the imagery and that you gave your muse a life. Good luck in the contest
