haunted {haiku}

jealousy haunts me

madness and insanity

need to be needed

white spaces {haiku}

marginalia
writing lingers on the page
treasures left behind

unreserved {haiku}

candor expression

healing myself through these words

pain broken open

destroyer {haiku}

acting nonchalant 

as you rip people apart

enjoying their pain

damage {haiku}

mask slipped from your face

desired to destroy me

not hewn to your will

connection lost {haiku}

butterflies panic
the questions left unanswered
lost our connection

twilight {haiku}

beautiful lover
soft eyes glitter and twinkle
in the twilight -

rainy day {haiku}

sprinkles on my face
I forgot my umbrella
quickly, don't get wet

freedom {haiku}

my inner nisus
drives me to push past the pain
toward my freedom

thunderstorm {haiku}

thunderstorm rages
outside my broken window
fills my heart with peace

my laden heart {haiku}

my laden heart rues
the Way is my undergird
seek it utterly

intimate {haiku}

lambent flickering

of the candles, sets the mood

time for connection 

beach party {haiku}

fire on the beach
bare toes digging in the sand
celebrating life

purple shadows {haiku}

purple shadows cool
under the hot autumn sky
down the mountainside

triggered {haiku}

emotions popple

rising, out of control -

who shall I turn to

illness {haiku}

without prayer, my

struggle roars back to life -

losing sight of god

rest {haiku}

little sleep, long week
tired and weary, I be
rest calling my name

Illinois country {haiku}

stalks reaching skyward

golden whispers through the breeze 

this will forever be home 

bored at work {haiku}

staring at a screen
all my work is done right now
wasting time for pay

orotund {haiku}

sesquipedalian
florid orotund haiku
paradoxical
