Just Haiku

[anirbas]

star shot heavens shine
sweet doves coo in the tree crowns
in silence I weep

[anirbas]

no compensation
for this abject emptiness
there is no vaccine

[darkness0within]

in reality
time is just an illusion
of our own making

[darkness0within]

why do you worry
there are things you cannot change
beyond your control

[darkness0within]

life is but a dream
given form for just a while
that will turn to dust

[anirbas]

we are most alive
when we forget our deep thoughts
and simply just be

[darkness0within]

your blood is our life
giving us eternity
within the shadows

[darkness0within]

we only exist
upon your darkest whim
to know dark pleasures

[darkness0within]

a presidents throne
perched so high on a mountain
which is made of mud

[darkness0within]

believing is key
to what you call religion
who really has faith

[darkness0within]

dying willow tree
a memory of the past
fading from my thoughts

[darkness0within]

mean spirited men
spout rules and regulations
to swell their ego

[darkness0within]

within the darkness
you cannot see the shadows
of what was a life

[anirbas]

Wow, Darkness. You've been going to town in here, I see!!! Remiss of me to miss it. I enjoyed catch up reading, just now!

[anirbas]

weeping willow tree
best friend to the child I was
hidden in its crown

~*~

a book in my hand
back leaned against its rough trunk
lost in reverie

~*~

it was my safe zone
a world of green and gold light
sweet with leaf whispers

[darkness0within]

such isolation
a paradise to behold
walking through the crowd

[silver]

moments cold and blue
remind me of losing you
I hate winter now

[vulture]

you opened the door
stepped out and were devoured
by the waiting dark

[vulture]

a broken object
heart lay in shards on the floor
mute frozen I stood

[vulture]

I could not process
your leave taking I love you
I never did say

[vulture]

for decades a hole dwelt
an abyss of misery
where once my heart beat

[darkness0within]

the abyss is near
tread carefully through this time
of rising shadows

[darkness0within]

the future is seen
dividing all that has been
with no rights or wrongs

[darkness0within]

what colour a heart
and what colour is a soul
in the scheme of things

[darkness0within]

always too much time
to ponder the forgotten
that i once did know

[darkness0within]

time waits for no one
as life passes swiftly by
their end now in sight

[darkness0within]

a leaders denial
sitting in the white tower
of nightmares and dreams

[darkness0within]

society waits
the second coming of fate
carrying a sword

[darkness0within]

in dreams I see you
covered with a patchwork quilt
crying for the past

for time is unkind
to those that hold what once was
not looking forward

[darkness0within]

the cold winds of winter
blow strongly within your heart
on a summers day
