Wayland Bunch Poet Villanelle

Ten Villanelles- Second

2

Always the hint of hurt is the words I say
Sadly I don't know what else can now be
I began with only one message to convey

Lost, hurt, unable to control pain as I lay
A great journey began, but I'm lost at sea
Always the hint of hurt in the words I say

Looking for happiness I continue to stray
Never finding what will finally set me free
I began with only one message to convey

My words deceiving, to and fro they sway
Truly this is not who I am, not the real me
Always the hint of hurt in the words I say

Some seem to think it's a game that I play
As if causing pain is what will give me glee
I began with only one message to convey

I tried to hide, find my peace, see my way
The path was too convoluted for me to see
Always the hint of hurt in the words I say
I began with only one message to convey

Laura Breidenthal December 12, 2013 at 4:26 AM Very interesting one. It's amazing how much you can write in one night-and the quality of your writing thereof.. Always, Laura Laura Breidenthal December 12, 2013 at 3:16 PM Definitely worth a title, friend. Again, love your work. Keep it up! ~Laura Wayland Bunch December 12, 2013 at 12:26 PM Thank you again for the kind words, and I do like these. Sometimes I will revisit something of mine, and no one has commented and I'll give myself a pat on the back lol, but your comment stopped me and showed me that some of these really need names.
