Finding Myself Again

A lamppost mirrors my frame drooping while I close my eyes, awaiting morn to flicker on spoiled dreams: till angelic whispers begin a hymn through pin-points of notes along sedate trees; yet, the fire from my belly breathes again like an orange wave... how in this open pain, a light draws me close to hope's rebirth within a new world, feeding my roots , my veins borne from self-love..again. "We can't be so desperate for love that we forget where we can always find it; WITHIN.” ?

Deeply inspiring! We tend to love another too much at the expense of losing our identity. A supreme poem! My thanks too for placing in your contest.
