From the depth of my cage
I saw you pretending to be
Not my keeper
Releasing me, only to chase me
Into my own nightmare
Of charred souls
Standing helpless
As I watched the ash blow away
A real nightmare I had that a while ago that I cannot forget
You liked the shape of my heart
So you took it for yourself
And left me the shell
Just keep it. I'll grow another one
The birds remind me
That the sweet songs of loving
Were not meant to be
Haiku for you

Words are not enough
Baking scented love
Rich in aroma
Outwitting my senses
With chewy bites
Nothing draws me in more
Insisting I partake
Every single time
Same thing happens when I see you
Pick your favorite dessert and do an acrostic
No calories consumed.
Will my inner child
Catch up to my adult mind
And collab
Or collide?
Childhood problems in my adult brain
