I wish the scars of the soul could be seen
I wish the scars of the soul could be seen The scars that are inflicted deep within the soul often run deeper than the ones that are visible to the naked eye. Pain in its amorous embrace sets its fangs deeper into the crevices of the acts and syllables recorded in its intangible zest. Our heart knows moments that it tries its best to bury inside the depths of its brevity. There is both beauty and severance in the transitory moments of life. It has the most radiant days and the most desperate of nights. There are moments of light and joy and then there are moments of darkness, of hours of plight that behold and bemoan on us for being pure.

Imperfection
Introduction This is for Heather's challenge that you can read below: I thought about the word "Perfect", then "Perfection" and then to increase the number of letters "Perfectionism". Then I reread the rules (you know men never read instructions but maybe I am not a real man, just some subhuman knuckle dragger) and thought "Perfection" is ten characters and "Perfectionism" is thirteen characters, but my ideas were formed for a villanelle, What could I do? Obviously, add two letters to the beginning, and find out that Salvador Dali was right.
