Ice dystopia
Next in line for leaving home
Thawed heart if you speak.
---
Exhale winter through
Raindrop drumming on your mind
Carry on, dig deep.
---
One life left to leave
No one misses seeds you sow
Never for nothing.
---
Estimate your worth
Chasms cannot close themselves
Take your time my friend.
Posted at Haiku Heights prompt: support

I think we all need support to thaw our iced hearts and heal ourselves through time ~

ReplyDeleteThank you...
Deletedeep and thought-provoking ..... don't know why, but I felt a bit of fear...
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting Joanne. This poem partly came out of hearing about someone who had taken their own life. I wanted to highlight everyone's need of support and that you should seek support if you need it...
DeleteCan't be expressed any better than this. Great haiku, Mitchell!

ReplyDeleteThanks Brian.
DeleteAh, estimating one's worth! Hard to do, undoubtedly. Probably depends on how a person feels about himself/herself on any given day!
ReplyDeleteI agree Mary, but it's worth remembering how important you are to those you around you even when you don't feel important!
DeleteSelf worth is more important than one's considered value to others...that is just a bonus.If one is judged on the assessment of others, then a lot of us would be worth nothing.
ReplyDeleteMost certainly true. Thanks for stopping by :)
