When I find myself
drowning in turmoil,
I close my eyes.
I see you feeding
my fragile breaths
some sanguine seeds of hope.
I savour them &
see how soon they
build trust within my inner self.

Published in Leaf - Journal of The Daily Haiku, thank you to its founder, Amanda White, and editor, Ravi Kiran, for including my verses.

Drowning in crisis,
She looked for
Every hand around
Was made
Pariah by
Everyone around
Found none to
Augment her
Her strength around
Only & only her
Loved ones
Were around
