the po~et 8 (rediscovery)


Jacquelyn felt Professor Shaffer watching at her. She wasn't sure what to think at first. She had decided to return to school to rediscover herself. She was undergoing a life alteration and didn't need anything or anyone to hinder her transformation. She was on a self proclaimed tour of discovery. The journey she had found to be a hard task and one she aimed on surviving. Armed with the fortitude of a mule, she walked the campus at Miami not knowing what would be next.

She had given up on finding the love she often read about. She refused to shed tears for fear it would be an admittance to failure. Maybe love wasn't for her, maybe she was to be like Tristan and Isolt, destined to sing a sad song.

Humming the melody in her sleep, when she closes her eyes in search of a vision. It is there, in her secret place--she sings.
