infatuation's rains
can not water love's flower
or wash dirt of guilt
indulgence in lies
calls demons to their dinner
feeding on your soul
vanity's children
gorging upon carrion
of false connections
in the tear-filled home
of sorrowful joy, I wait,
pray for your rebirth

Truths in poetic expressions ...
linger gently in the soul:
salve for sadness
have joy in my words
remember: they were given
to me by sorrow
Love
Always Myra

This is stunning! Each of those Haiku's connect to tell the larger story, yet on their own they stand alone with a strong message.
Beautiful!

This haiku chain is amazing but I don't think the target audience will understand it. It's over their self centered tiny little minds. Those that do understand it will simply agree. Brilliant!
Love,
Amera♥
