Tainted

Tonight my mind flees
It is haunted with knowledge
What horrors we've made.

We are the monsters we write, we should have never had such freedoms. Even at the most base level we fail. How, do you yet call us good.

Impossible Love

What happened that day…
… what can’t we know
And why did you weep…

Why go to such lengths for us…
… what a burden you must bear
And why must it be this way…

Trust without knowing is faith isn’t it… your actions. You are impossible to know. It hurts to love you, but even more to know you love us… It is truly impossible love.

Wicked Words

Power of the tongue
Do not tread lightly, for We
Can speak life or death

Disgust clouds my mind, but I must restrain my putrid tongue. I have fallen, perhaps I remain grounded for cursing myself.

Should Have Used Pencil

My pen offends me
Acted like I didn’t see
But, it wrote the truth

Dug the quill to deep, seen my shadows in the ink.

Fall’s Reflection

The Tree’s last leaf falls
Does it reflect on Spring’s blooms;
Dreaming with eyes closed

Sometimes those blooms bore such sour fruit.
I do enjoy attempting haiku with Nature elements. I should take some time to study the development of the Haiku and its form.

Autonomic

Im glad that the Heart
Beats only on its accord
For my Mind, gave up

I whom deserves death

He sighs; chancing a look in the mirror
Eyes glaring back with unrestrained disdain
His heart rises, breaths accelerate
Offering his reflection only contempt
. . .
That wretched reflection only he sees

Despise yourself you worthless dog
Resent your abhorrent self
Don't forget your place
