Rob (Villanelle)

 

He lived a life of broken dreams

but found peace within the pieces

Life isn’t always what it seems

 

while sometimes going to extremes

endorphin highs with quick releases

He lived a life of broken dreams

 

with whispers louder than the screams

every day the pain decreases

Life isn’t always what it seems

 

while trying different coping schemes

all the stress those tears unleashes

He lived a life of broken dreams

 

by choosing sides and picking teams

comradery increases

Life isn’t always what it seems

 

through darkest clouds and sunshine beams

I hope he found what peace is

He lived a life of broken dreams

Life isn’t always what it seems
