This was a great haiku...of course saying that is pretty ironic given the subject matter but anyways, there was more to this little haiku than one would think..I think the "until you wale up tomorrow" is the best part because it implies something and is like a cliffhanger...lol anyways I liked it great job Val
Much love, Curious

Hi Valerie!ย Love Cherie's comment,ย "I understand the need to numb it by drinking"! I myself very rarely indulge but can certainly empathize with those that succumb when sorrows get too much! A great Haiku, dear friend... love Jack xxx

With four words, haiku describes all the horror which usually behind a bottle of alcohol. A greeting.

CURSED

CURSED

As yesterday creeps into tomorrow
Pleasure is littered with sorrow
Love remains laced in hate...

DISENGAGE

DISENGAGE

Tensions will rise
As crafty wicked dreams
Disengage from reality
As they dance in...

Autumn blue flower,
I trace my bruises with it,
How soft its touch is.

Depression

In deep sombre thoughts,
I meet demons in disguise,
Of hope, love and peace.
