Could falling angels

cast from heaven one by one

create as much pain as we have done?
Sometimes mankind needs a ****** good look in the mirror
anticipation shakes me
as my fingers tremble
in the looming darkness
of tomorrow

the shadows grow longer,
and i grow tired. the day
stretches on, and doesn't end
but then it does.

and as night falls, so does
silence, and so does the moonlight
over the shadows, over the
mountains that are ever so tall

my dreams are dark,
near nightmares, no where near
reality, where all the shadows fall
and all the moonlight glimmers

bring to light this fear
make this all now clear
Restful nights await.
There have been
Times

I have felt
Unable

Unworthy

To live
Or die

egg shells
like bells
in a silent world

eyes shut tight

beyond the window
birds have eggs
     in their open
life

yet egg shells must break
risk must take

for life's
sake

I have never been the victim of domestic abuse. I have however seen my nearest and dearest suffer.
"But what if you don't struggle with your darkness?

If you sit quietly and let it wrap itself around you for long enough

Maybe you'll get a glimpse of all the stars In your heart.
I'm not ready to go, but I am anxious to know.

Always in search of what awaits us in life after Death,

I will explore the unknown until I've finally exhaled my last living breath.
A fly
In my closet
Cannot bee
Love haikus ;)
Holding my relevance
close to my chest
in case it's dropped
and lost
We all need to know our relevance
