In Winter Seek Your Passion

"Considered one of the most difficult forms of poetry, the villanelle is a challenge."

In Winter seek your passion long since passed, And know that what you sow you often reap.Your life dreams may yet come to you at last.Though ancient hills cache secrets cruelly vast,Inside their rock strewn oaken hollows deep,In Winter seek your...

She won't accept cruel censure by duress.Bestow it not upon this priceless jewelWho fills my soul with happiness and bliss,And will not be denied sweet love's renewal.No other lady shows such strength and charm.No gentlewoman holds my heart's delight.We shall...

Agnus Dei

"Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!"

It was a woman, this time, a woman who was the sacrifice.Offering herself, with fear, and with hope, but with the sanctity of truth,to remove my sin,to take it in,and fulfill my redemption. My completion, my star, to guide me...

My baby is in pain.I hate that.I can't feel it.But I do, I do.I feel it.My baby is in pain.My little lover is hurting,and I want to ease it.I need to solve it,resolve it.Make it better.It is so cruel, for...

It is never going to happen.Believe it.It is not going to happen.Nope.How long are you going to yearn.You have wasted so much time.They don't care.They never really cared.They let you think they did,but they didn't. Never going to happen.You are standing...
