Delilah

Roses
lying broken
on grey rocks.

Answer
my heart
and bury me.

Feelings
cannot live
with no love.

    I might have to crash bananasfoster42's contest to understand this. seem like a haiku to me, but it isn't. it is well written but very confusing. I think I would love to hear what this poem means to you from you. maybe then I can understand it better. but it is good. thanks for writing. good luck

      thanks

      first of all this is a Hay (na) ku (see second-born) which is a tercet with a total of 6 words in three lines (1 word, 2, 3 or 3 words, 2, 1) and multiple Hay (na) ku can be chained . . the poem is written from a photo prompt (see pic link) and relates to the death of love not yet buried . . thanks for the compliments as well . . I wrote a Hay (na) ku for a contest with second-born as well . .
