Rain

Heartache pours out and doesn't ease or lessen the wound, Swearing to heaven for peace or just an end has no effect. And in the dark hours the heart craves just one sound, It's beloved to whom it is chained and bound, One moment to relieve the pain is desired, But never enough end to …

Heroes and Villians….

Review of The Hero Always Wins by Robert Eaton Never judge a book by its cover or by a really quick glance; initially the cover of Hero Always Wins reminded me of a romance novel, which is why it languished so long on the reading list.  Oh, how wrong I was. It was the perfect …
