Deborah Foster Poet Villanelle

Let Me Love You New Blood 8 12 16

Let me fall in love with you one more time.
While clouds drift across the darkened sky,
My feet can't dance, my words won't rhyme.

I'll let down my guard, up it you shall climb.
Rainbows and cotton candy always makes me cry,
Let me fall in love with you one more time.

At the midnight hour the clock must chime,
Across the ballroom this Cinderella will fly,
My feet can't dance, my words won't rhyme.

Your heart is the prison, I have done the crime,
I said hello, you whispered that final goodbye.
Let me fall in love with you one more time.

Hunt me down whilst I am still in my prime.
I'll make it easy on you, I'll quickly die.
My feet can't dance, my words won't rhyme.

My heart has become dirty and covered with grime,
I'll always be here, for you of my sin, of my lie.
Let me fall in love with you one more time,
My feet can't dance, my words won't rhyme.
