Into the Nowhere

selfstruggles

A word is spoken
To a non-listening ear
And I remember
A moment gives in
To pathetic nothingness
And I envy it
Holding memories
Inside a tightly clenched fist
I try to follow
Begging the numbness
To reintroduce itself
I let go of you
Unrestricted now
But for your faithful shadow
I brave the abyss
From inside the void
I can hear your voice calling
I can still feel you
Your ever present
Silhouette stands before the
Disappearing sun
I let myself fall
Further into the nowhere
Until you are gone
In the dark alone
I find the answer you stole
All those years ago
I reach, only to
Feel the now familiar pain
As it slips away

My very breathing is shallow as I type this . . . I'm amazed. This is so beautiful, so powerful - so brave, hon - that I want to spirit it away, print it out, send it to a thousand famous publishers --all of whom will no doubt jump at the chance to publish this-- so it's forever immortalized and you can never deny that something so - so - so much - came from your pen.
I'm at a loss here, I honestly am. You and this are wonderful.
love,
Nora |

I'm impressed! These are all such good and wonderful deep emotionally touched haiku. I especially like number five. It speaks of braveness. Kudos! (and cheers! :-) )
Onward!

Sorry Snemmy, gotta agree with Norry here, and everyone else too.
And you thought this was bad? Well girl, I think it is stunning...
I wish I could write a haiku that even came near to this in um...haikuness? lol

This is probably the highest compliment I have ever given to anyone on this site. This reminds me of Bill Mallonee who wrote
"the guard just looked away, the moment has her say." The guy is just awesome, and so is this.
Here's the link, in case you're interested:

Stunning ~
Well worth the struggle and the wait. Challenge met impressively. I'm unable to formulate much more than this as a response, as my words wish not to detract from what I have just read.

Amazing, and that seems not enough to describe what you have done here.
You know I'm not just saying this...your writing is beyond incredible.
