anxiety

Standard

me…reasonably good looking

intact body parts

food…always on the table

two beautiful children

a reasonable life partner

decent moolah

a good job

a few loving people around me

not homeless…

and still…

the demon called ANXIETY

raises its head

catching me unawares

true love

Standard

just my dog

my children and my parents

truly love me

those who truly

love me endlessly

are but a few

only a few

in this big bad world

matter

brown girl

Standard

love me

for I am what I am

colour doesn’t matter

not an excuse

Standard

you cannot use love

as an excuse to control

someone’s life

beginning of time

Standard

meet me

at the beginning of time

let’s start over

eyes… haiku

Standard

your eyes hold

the warmth of summer

long after it’s gone

love

Standard

later in life

all love fades away

memories linger
