heartbreak

I want to recall

the beauty of your warm eyes

but my heart still breaks

 

 

- A senryu written for 2023 April PAD Challenge Day 11.  The challenge was to write a form and/or anti-form poem.

 

 

porcelain heart

a porcelain heart

sacred as a brilliant star

breakable as glass

love again

my heart desires

to fall deep in love again

but my mind wavers

Inspired by Poetic Asides's 2019 April PAD Challenge: Day 29

note

he left her a note

with words too harsh to speak of

they still stung them both
