Death,
take hold of my body
because feeling has left it to nothing,
nor will love remain deep inside my heart.
Death,
rip it out of my flesh.
O dastardly pity
has fallen upon my love.
Death,
take the knife and stab me
and be done with self-loathing,
lest I let fall my guard and love him.
Death,
will hurt me yet again this time
if I fly toward merriment
to the end of bitter love.
Upcoming Event I hope to make an appearance at the Ottawa Romance Book Fair, when a date is officially announced for 2027. This is a one-day event held at the Conference Centre, so check back soon for updates.
