I wrote this haiku sonnet, based on this quotation: “Mental illness leaves a huge legacy, not just for the person suffering it but for those around them.” -Lysette Anthony
the fallout
another day starts,
bones heavy with night’s trauma,
her blank face breaks hearts
not always easy
to love someone so distant
strength; the cross to bare
hate-filled words hurtle
through air thick with silence and
insults which batter
always fearful of
losing her forever, this
half-lived life kills
shroud of loneliness numbs mind
relationship frays
(((Hugs)))❤🌹☺
