villanelle, first attempt.

It's wrong, but i like free verse better!

As Darkness Falls, A Mad Girl’s Lullaby

Swiftly, softly, stop your weeping
Look around: the world’s entrails are opened clear
To breathe again this bright fresh air

Even though the torrent fails
To wash our streets clean and white—it’s time
Swiftly, softly, stop your weeping

As darkness falls now, stars appear
Over the hills the sun dips to drink
To breathe again this bright fresh air.

Walk with me, take my hand
Even though I dreamed you dear
Swiftly, softly, stop your weeping.

You are as solid as the moonbeams
That bathe my face, I beg you, kiss me and
Swiftly, softly, stop your weeping
To breathe again this bright fresh air.
