hello everyone!

i am looking for poems about cleansing, rebirth, starting over, etcetera, but not so much moving on or getting over.

thanks in advance, i love this community!

and i leave you with this:

In The Dark - Honor Moore

It was night that made him strange,
not his gold spectacles or the strained
lay of his skin. Always I say love
before it's strange enough, or strange
at all, but this time, Doctor, I love
our silence, the pale gray
stain of his eyes leave in my dreams, the strange
burning of his fingers, strangling
in his long kissing, and the straggle
hope burns, a borealis to strafe
my retinas in the dark. A goat strays
through my dreams, Doctor, a crazy dove,
and from Pontormo, a woman struck
blind, her arms raised against the stranger.
