POET

I am Alicia Van Akker, just a girl who finds solace in words, weaving emotions into poetry as a way to capture love, life, and the lessons they bring. I have never studied writing in a formal institution, nor do I claim to be a professional poet. But I write—honestly, intimately, and with all my heart.

Poetry is my way of turning moments into something eternal. As an emcee, I have spent years expressing through spoken words, yet here, I let my voice transform into written verses, carrying emotions that linger beyond time. Every poem is a reflection of what I feel, what I see, and what I learn. I do not write about things I do not understand—I write about what moves me.

Through The Poetic Femme, I invite you to pause, to feel, and to find poetry in the simple and the profound. I love the play of words, the way emotions can be delicately held within them. My writing is personal, shaped by my own journey, filled with whispers of love, the quiet echoes of life, and the beauty of simply being.

I do not seek perfection, only sincerity. One day, when my time here is done, I hope my words remain—a quiet footprint in the world of poetry, carried across generations. And one day, I will sign my name among those who have left their mark before me: Alicia Van Akker, an Indonesian poet.
