Favorite Quote:
The meaning of life is to give life a meaning.


Two things in this world that drive us to extremes;
One passion, the other pain.
Abstractions from reality--keep them in our dreams.

Hopelessness; from that alone, you want to scream.
From both, we go insane.
Two things in this world that drive us to extremes.

The two forever act as a team,
Aphrodite and Ares live up to their names.
Abstractions from reality--keep them in our dreams.

Lives torn apart at the seams,
Pain from death hits your heart like acid rain.
Two things in this world that drive us to extremes.

Acting vain, little self-esteem.
Once you leave, you’ll never return the same.
Abstractions from reality--keep them in our dreams.

We wish to be home again, but where is home in our daydreams?
We wish to hold, to cherish, to abstain
Two things in this world that drive us to extremes.
Abstractions from reality--keep them in our dreams.

This is a Villanelle I had written for my poetry portfolio in my English class. :)
