"THIS FEELING"
My tears are flowing like an endless rain,
And inside my heart, there is a typhoon.
This feeling, it's a never-ending pain.
Memories come in like a bullet train,
Promises embrace me like the monsoon,
This feeling, one I cannot quite explain.
For you, I remember going insane,
Overthinking about love during noon,
And at night, drowning myself in champagne.
This feeling, one that tampers with my brain.
A feeling that makes me fall out of tune.
But here I am, by your side, I remain.
This feeling, one I cannot quite contain.
I'm missing you; I want to see you soon.
But you don't want to be with me again.
This feeling, one I cannot quite explain.
And inside my heart, there is a typhoon.
This feeling, it's a never-ending pain.
But here I am, by your side, I remain.
-- Villanelle (five tercets, one quatrain – 19 lines)
