A heart conflicted
Powerful duality
Lost within my heart
Fog blurring sunlight
Mysteries within white air
My tea slowly cools
Vibrant colors flow
Boldly down to our deep core
Diversity’s light
These girls with strong hearts
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>I seek to build up their dreams
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Adore their spirits
<

I despise how our culture breaks down the spirits of girls and young women.

Hope is a dish
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Best served
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Warm
<

Self-hatred’s pain
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Wretchedest of miseries
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Can’t escape the mind
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>This one didn’t get published for some reason. I do love it, so am sharing it now.

<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Rain’s sound consumes me
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Voices carried through the night
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Soothing my soul
<

Today’s Haiku:
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Focus lost with ease
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Jealousy’s dangerous voice
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>Broken clarity
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>
<
p style=”font-family:’Helvetica Neue’, Arial, sans, sans-serif;”>It is an easy trap, losing myself into comparisons. The resulting lack of focus damages my journey. Seek, then, clarity and my eyes pointed towards love.
Echoing voices
Brief flickers of
Light behind my
Eyes seeing potential
Birthed by different
Choices of a life
Not lived
Caught unwary
Tinged these
With regret
Painful loss
Of a false future
A lie told to
Myself
Though I love haiku, I also love creating longer works and free verse.
