Haiku #29

It aches, this desire

to reach out and hold you close

But fear binds my hands

How do you choose to

swim when all you long to do

is let go and drown?

Happy used to be

my default, now replaced with

unwanted restraint.

Time to make a choice

Do you allow yourself to

drown of stay afloat?

Life is cyclical

Constantly enduring pain

For the ones you love

end up man and wife.

I built my life around you

which I don’t regret.

Only within boundaries

This fern, once withered

Revived again with nurture

Gives me hope for us

of the iceberg that’s hidden

in the depths of me.

[jenfuzzled]

Haiku #15

Some don’t understand

that love is not all romance

but is sacrifice

[jenfuzzled]

Haiku #14

I can’t tell you how

my heart longs to hold you but

my arms lack the strength

I am not defined

by your opinion of me

I choose who I am.

Haiku #11

I have my own songs

to sing and days to live out

Not in your shadow
