lazy afternoon…haiku

scented balmy air

lazing in the dappled shadows

memories abound

a new world

to travel alone

to a far off destination

is my dream

for even

I don’t know

who I will be

and what would be my actions

with no one to hold me back

where

I won’t be a mother, daughter, sister

but just a random free soul

out to explore the

new world

approval… haiku

late night, unsettled

me active on social media

looking for approval?

violated

talk to my face

let your eyes focus

on my eyes

dont let them wander

down my neck …to my breasts

for it unnerves me

as

i am a mother,a sister and a wife

and the way you stare

makes me feel violated

my poetry

you… my poetry

are a vent for my heart

for I write you

not for fame or money

but

for my thoughts and feelings

to be verbalised

stranger

we loved each other

it was our world

but

I don’t know when

you

became a stranger

and

our lives changed

life and death

death scares me

as does life

but

it would be a lot easier

with you by my side
