Poetic Form: Free Verse
I don't really dig free verse anymore. I loved it in high school; I wrote of it is college, but now I prefer writing in poetic forms all sorts. Something I have learned about writing is that you sometimes need to return to what you knew back in the day. So, today, Dear Readers, I return to free verse for OctPoWriMo Day #1.
Today's poem is about that special type of love, Self Love, and discovering it. It is a hard love to find, but it is a beautiful and wonderful love. I hope you enjoy, Dear Readers.

the strange and different than I knew.
I wanted to feel,
I wanted to be open,
I wanted love,
I wanted to be...
