Of Sadness – Haiku

in

By D. R. DiFrancesco

*******************************

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.
