sadness reign
she clung to covers
tear soaked rain
daily same
dark clouds pushed all hope away
sun always went down
*
long for love
little girls have fears
never clear
thunder claps
no where to hide from sorrow
storm so near
*
unbroken
words never spoken
standing tall
don’t look back
bright is tomorrow’s token
hope is queen

Jacques Villon aka Gaston Émile Duchamp (born July 31, 1875 died June 9, 1963) was a French painter and printmaker who was involved in the Cubist movement; later he worked in realistic and abstract styles.
Villon was the brother of artists Suzanne Duchamp, Raymond Duchamp-Villon, and Marcel Duchamp. In 1894 he went to Paris to study law, but, once there, he became more interested in art, and he spent the next 12 years contributing illustrations and cartoons to newspapers. In 1903 Villon was one of the founders of the Salon d’Automne, an exhibiting association that was created as an alternative to the traditional Salon. He began to study painting in 1904.
