Venus Rages Brightly Tonight

Venus rages brightly tonight But the night is thick with shame. It doesn't cool my round thoughts Nor hold my soul to the flame. Some things just can't be said; Neither can they be helped. These things should be weathered - And through it all - be felt. Pieces of me - I try to collect Before they can fall away And I guard them - resolute That something of those remain.
