Favorite Quote:
Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia. ~E.L. Doctorow


Goddess of love, goddess of lust,
Who wields the magnet of the soul,
Why is heartbreak a must?

She left my heart to age and rust.
And now it’s hard and black like coal,
Goddess of love, goddess of lust.

Her words were professed with such gust
That I could not hold back the dole.
Why is heartbreak a must?

Into my heart, her dagger was thrust.
Now there resides a gaping hole,
Goddess of love, goddess of lust.

The passion within ceases to combust.
Her icy remains have seized all control.
Why is heartbreak a must?

Time goes on and my heart gathers dust,
But perhaps one day it will again be whole.
Goddess of love, goddess of lust,
Why is heartbreak a must?
