Beat my heart so you hear our stellar promises
(Poème written originally in French in Occitan Sonnet format and in Alexandrin. See original here)

Unleash soft silences rhythm me choruses
Consume me in pleasure within sheltered hearth
Repot me free flower in vase without morrows
That others may speak ill only of restless heart
Affix me pottery pieces brands of disdain
That I may re-read me well-deserved Kintsugi
Old dances revive me waltz to thousand quatrains
Of my delirious stream by a murmur revealed
When the dreary nights come and the fire goes out
Revive me from ashes a tiny ray of light
May thread of the three Norns in the heavens stay stout
Let my mind meander through the moors and the heaths
The boundless green islands that my eye caresses
Beat my heart so you hear our stellar promises
Reading of the sonnet:
Hold on to Love – The Cranberries
Zombie – The Cranberries
