Two for one...

Liars

Didn’t say a word.

Yet you ran away from me.

You’re just a coward.

Verify

When you tell the truth,

There’s no need to hide your face,

It will speak for you.

Faith

Faith

I believe in You.

I will never be the same.

I have a new name.

Solitude

Solitude

Alone I wonder

Will you notice my fake smiles?

Cockiness equals blind.

Relationships

Relationships

Save the argument.

The solution is talking.

But, keep your mouth shut.

Argument

Argument

It doesn’t matter

Even when it hurts your soul.

You will never be right.

Hurt

Hurt

My eyes tell you all.

But, my soul knows how to lie.

I think I am done.

My Pen

My Pen

It used to excite.

Each stroke pulling at heart strings.

Now it sits alone.

NaNoWriMo

NaNoWriMo

Aggressive at start.

But soon the words escape me.

Will I ever win?

Writing Sober

Writing Sober

A cure for blocked words.

When beer can do the mind right,

Why then write sober?

New Mother

New Mother

Long nights and no sleep.

Watch you smile is my reward.

Love you more each day.

Coffee

Coffee

You wake me gently.

Warm sensations when we meet.

Without you, I’m lost.

Music

Music

Where are the lyrics?

Astute word plays forgotten.

Massacred language.

Peace

Peace

Silence overwhelms.

On the words you left, I dwell.

Smiles ease the pain.

Anger

Anger

Fire churned in my stomach.

Hot blood cascading.

Imagination runs wild.

Heartless

Heartless

There was a time where cold reigned.

Warmth and love consumed.

Flesh moved in, heartache began.

31 Days of Haikus

So much has changed in the last couple of months. Although, I feel EXTREMELY blessed beyond words (cliche, I know...but it's true) I have found myself missing something that was unique to me.

MY WRITING.

I have decided, in order to pop my now dormant non communicative wordy creative genes, I would give myself a task of creating 31 Haiku in the month of October. I am hoping that this is enough to inspire the writer in me to wake up and sign up to once again attempt NaNoWriMo and hopefully finish with a novel that I am proud of editing. (The last one is printed and in a binder and I refuse to edit because I think it's crap) Anyway, I know I am late in posting this so I have two Haiku's to introduce you to. The next couple of days will be without introduction and will just be the poems.

Thank you for your patience and off I go grab some zzzz's before the baby wakes up.

10-1 

Forgiveness

The air is thick with regret.

Devotion betrayed.

Open your eyes, I’m still here.

10-2 

Regret

That look in your eye, I knew.

Mi alma llora.

Time leaves open wounds never to heal.
