A House That Leans/ Bar Haiku/ Magic Lost
Poetry and a Haiku

In a house that leans
I find sanctuary
The peace I've sought for so long
Though new life has sprung
I grow wary

this is what I wanted
It's true
And my foundation, you see,
isn't steady
But I'd rather be here

Something I never show
Found in spaces between the stars
Its always been a part of me
An extra emotion I cant describe
Ive searched under the trees of owls
In forgotten lakes an streams
Its a thing which nymphs will forfeit
When they fall in love with human beings
