Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

liminality & grief

No longer, not yet

As my broken heart beats on

Still, fragmented, yet

Merril at https://dversepoets.com/2023/08/15/poetics-august-transitions/ has asked us to consider a transitional time in our lives. Still struggling with a recent loss, I’m in the midst of figuring out how to heal. Writing helps, when I let it.

just for a moment

yesterday lives in color

then grief recalls time

I’m sure that “What I See” is deeply connected to my own recent loss (of my dad) but (to me) she looks so unbearably sad.

Visit Sadje’s What Do You See? and tell us what you see.
