I'm not really sad...
I'm just mad that you left me
Without a goodbye
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm standing alone
I wanna scream so, so bad
But I lost my voice...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And I lost myself...
I'm just mad that you left me...
I'm not really sad...

Well emotional!
"And I lost myself" This line speaks volumes! Well done, Anna!
Well, now, I had to peruse a little to see what of Anna's work I should add to my CREATION MYTH, and I have to say, the simplicity of the haiku lends itself very well to these universal sentiments! Who hasn't felt this heartbreak, which despite its profusion is yet aptly expressed by a handful of syllables scattered on a page? Well-wrought! Write on! This one will go into my personal comment thread on the CREATION MYTH as today's addition!
Only a few people have the opportunity not to be disappointed by a breakup. But even if it happens, you have to get up and keep going. We must rejoice in what is left for us. Think about not having to worry about rockets or what you're going to eat tomorrow.
ah, this is both heartbreaking and beautifully penned. I like how you bookended it too. Sorry that you experienced this, though!
This has happened to me. Sorry it happened to you as well ๐ฅบ Sending you lots of love and hugs โค๏ธ
Itโs a gift to evoke emotion in so little words. Great job.
Oh, this is beautifully done. And the emotion behind this is so powerful. Well done Anna!
These are heartbreaking and beautiful, Anna! Great work!
this makes me feel
