Haiku 335/365

Snow fell to the Earth Magic, cold, quiet seconds Erasing the past.

If I bled in ink The scars would be etched in skin Visible to all.

Reach into my heart And see, you light up this void This empty, this me.

An empty casing. My heart is shaking. Please stop. This ride seems pointless.

Hold on to my heart Guard it with your whole being And I’ll protect yours.

Hit me with the old Nostalgia hits just right I fight with what’s new.

Life transitions come Sometimes without warning we Are forced to rise up.

Caught up in romance Am I wasting my years here Is this what I want?

The complexities Of our dynamic here Is taking a toll.

Starry night in glass Drink your gin, but not too fast! Alone in your heart.
