Emile Pinet Poet Villanelle

Lured By Your Heart

Lured by your heart, I discovered your soul;
an ethereal spark that drew me in,
allowing me to relinquish control.

When I met you, my heart was far from whole;
but slowly, I felt the healing begin,
lured by your heart, I discovered your soul.

Although my future looked as black as coal,
I felt you were offering love, not sin;
allowing me to relinquish control.

Past experiences levied their toll,
and though my chances were extremely thin;
lured by your heart, I discovered your soul.

Gambling on Hope, I gave the dice a roll,
and listened to my heart whisper within;
allowing me to relinquish control.

I felt like an actor without a role;
then suddenly, it was my turn to win.
Lured by your heart, I discovered your soul;
allowing me to relinquish control.
