Harmony

Sitting in a room full of sadness

Surrounded by people with no gladness

The ache of a heart

The end before the start

Leaves one the wonder

What else lies under?

A hope remains in the shape of a girl

Who was weak but now conquers the world

Alone and friendless she lies

But onward she looks, up towards the skies

With a sword in hand and a battle cry

She screams that the evil is going to die

For all the pain it caused and love it destroyed

For all the hearts torn and lives soiled

Strong she was born and strong she will die

Living with nature in harmony

Haiku for You

Reaching for a log

Fallen from a nearby tree

Lost and in the fog

Gently down her back

My finger traces downward

A heart with a dot

Beaches line the shore

Shells and rocks rolling downhill

Rolling up and up

I can't write haiku

Because all I can think of 
is "oh hai Ku!" too

The Distance

Breaking without destroying

Knowing without seeing

You've fallen without understanding why

Liars and cheats and wronged you before

But not this time

Now you have cause to seek

Now you have reason to feel

Back up against the wall

The one that held you for so long

But not this time

Let go of the wrongs done to you

Forget about the hate you felt

This is not your war anymore

You're about to lose yourself

But not this time

Don't look deep inside

You'll find something you hate

You'll keep on fighting then

You'll try to run the distance

But not this time
