From Winston:
“When youth departs
—may wisdom prove enough”
To Winston:
“When spirit falters
—all will to then prevail”
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Hope Denied
When love deceives,
the heart to bleed,
its truth an open wound
Forever long,
time’s painful gong,
rerung with every moon
When love deceives,
on bended knees,
and lost within the pain
All wishes fly,
with hope denied
—as emptiness remains
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Death's Revenge
Today’s gone wild,
killers on the fringe
A life to take, its fate to make,
tomorrow—death’s revenge
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
No Time Left
When love commands
—there’s precious time left to serve truth
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
Hearts To Impound
What is the difference
between a fact and the truth
One limited in time,
the other free and unproved
Language and formula,
the great deceivers abound
As the light burns inside us
—our hearts to impound
(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)
