Hole in my Heart

Folder: 
2013

There’s a hole in my heart

and it’s searching for new points of view

as I fall apart.

 

This journey tears me part from part.

With every scar that I accrue,

there’s a hole in my heart.

 

Looking back to this dated chart

and realizing how much I grew

as I fell apart.

 

These wounds have created a work of art,

establishing a painful deja-vu.

There’s a hole in my heart.

 

From this past I must depart,

explore new ventures I never knew

as I fall apart.

 

All this wisdom I must impart

so as to discover stories new.

There’s a hole in my heart

as I fall apart.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A villanelle written for my unfamiliar genre project in February 2013. Discusses the difficulties of my past and how each trial or wounding must be dealt with in order to move forward. There is a piece of me missing, stolen from my past relationships and health history.
