Ten Villanelles- Sixth

6 I have searched constantly, no one there Loneliness accompanies me in this quest So much left undone, so much left to share If this is a race, I'm the tortoise, life the hare Sadly passes and renders test after test I have searched constantly, no one there To make myself a victim, I will not dare I surely have blame, you know this best So much left undone, so much left to share Lately I don't even have my time to spare Misery loves company, but I have no guest I have searched constantly, no one there Uncertain of anything, into the past I stare Knowing what I sacrificed leaves no rest So much left undone, so much left to share I have put forth everything, laid myself bare Wanting you to understand, I became a pest I have searched constantly, no one there So much left undone, so much left to share

Personally, I share similar sentiments, but you express these feelings very eloquently. Cool one! Never stop searching and living. : ) Always, Laura
