I wrote these bunch of words called ‘poems’ during my moments of ‘escaping reality’ or ‘wallowing in my core’. The first six poems are haikus and the last one is a free verse.
Fall
a loose leaf drifting
destined to fall to the ground
it's like me to you
Oui , Amour
night and fear we hush
into you I slowly crush
dear, no need to rush
She
dainty red rose bud
a whiff of her tempting scent
on my core's engraved
Cradle
mom put me to sleep
sing me a sweet lullaby
here on my cold grave
Unbreakable
you treated me rough
I have had enough
And I will stay tough
Eternity
A withered white rose
din of dripping bitter tears
Her life’s journey ceased
Late Night Blues #1
It's a quarter after two
my head is filled with thoughts of you
and I can't sleep
this feeling I can no longer keep
been staring at and waiting
for my phone to ring
your deep voice and infectious laughter, linger in my ears.
but now these simple things bring tears
Your sweet nothings quickly wane
And filled me with pain
been trying to keep you off my mind
and leave treasured moments behind
from the past, I tried to run away
but memories of you in my heart still stay
How can I ever let you go,
When I’ve learned to love you so?
