Love-Lorn Fallen Angel redux
This isn’t a real villanelle (I’m not sure) I guess here’s the unedited version

My heart begs to exhume your hard head
To excavate and dredge the deep sorrow
You’ve become my pure cacoethes instead
This drowning is a rite of unending dread
I’ll feel it yet deeper on the morrow
My heart begs to exhume your hard head
I’ve fallen, fallen, fallen, yet I’m not dead
I’m ravaged for your fevered words, unsaid
You’ve become my pure cacoethes instead
Darker, darker; my heart is the evil I borrow
Your hard head has exhumed my heart’s deathbed
My heart begs to exhume your hard head
My Halo’s soul dimmed as Death I have wed
These choices I’ve made created a Heaven embargo
You’ve become my pure cacoethes instead
My wings chopped for fury of my love-lorn dread
I clutch onto your ghost as my light starts to go
My heart begs to exhume your hard head
You’ve become my pure cacoethes instead
