We’re oceans apart.
Between us waves are breaking,
And so is my heart.
I wrote a version of this poem in a notebook two years ago, completely forgetting about it until I fell upon the same notebook a few weeks ago. When I saw it I was pleasantly surprised. I realised I could change the format to be a haiku and rewrote it as the above poem. Although sometimes I’m cautious that a lot of my writing appears to resonate sadness, I really liked the outcome of this one. The only thing I’m missing is a title. Suggestions are welcome…
