Nette Onclaud Poet Dramatic Verse

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.”
? Alexandra Elle
