    Summer 2018 Project

    I have decided to dedicate Summer 2018 to a simple project – posting two haikus a week. Haikus are my release when long form poetry seems too tedious and I have so much fun trying to convey an idea in the standard 5-7-5 format. I know that there are other formats, including the original way…

    I will always love you and I don’t know why. Our lives ran parallel for so long until they diverged. I wish that it might have been different. Honestly, I wish that our paths never crossed. These are words that I can never say to you because I’m afraid. Afraid to leave you more broken…
