Uncertainty
NAPOWRIMO 2023 & Writing Challenge Day 5

pensive and quiet
afraid to even exist
only shattered bones
a life not my own
stuck like trees in a dark swamp
unsure of what’s next
lack of nourishment
decimated by your lies
a mere shadow now
in need of sunshine
warmth upon my shallow face
wrapped in Divine love

This haiku series is in response to Alec Zarenkiewicz’s challenge — choose a subject to write about every day for a year. I’ve chosen ‘Mood.’
