*******************************
In sadness I fade
Left a hollow carapace
Of the man I was.
*******************************
In the black of night,
Sorrow rears it’s ugly head,
Leaving me tortured.
*******************************
Alone with my thoughts,
Silence as my only friend,
Plotting my demise.
*******************************
With head in my hands,
I pondered ending it all,
But what is the point.

these are tortuously honest…feel the pain deeply in them, and yes…this pain…beautifully expressed.
Thank you very much for taking the time to read it. I find the more I write haiku the more I love it. :)
These are very elegant. You have a talent for haiku.
Thank you for the nice compliment. I find that I really enjoy writing haiku the more I do it.
