Eternal Embrace

painful
love eternal
all that I desire
brought to me by the fates themselves
I live

Dawson Trentini

The poet reports:

Writing has always been my first love as a very effective way of
expression. Although I write for myself, I believe that, since we are
all connected in a ever present and fast emerging Human family,
writing for myself translates into writing for all my readers. I
believe in the inherent goodness and positive potential of every human
being as part of a globalized and unified society. My poetry style and
content is a kind of a struggle between reality and a reality that can
be. I was born in Roma, Italia, Europa. I went to school for creative
writing and I am  pursuing a degree in Chemistry. I am married with
two children and  currently live in Dallas, Texas, USA.
