Abstract/Artist Statement

Christina Rossetti's poetry is quite personal, encompassing a large range of emotions. This poem in particular–pardon the pun–struck a personal chord in me. It is laced with the bittersweetness of not having yet experienced passionate love, yearning for that connection with someone, and wondering where and who your someone could be, which I tried to convey in my harmonic language and use of asymmetric meter.
