This is my entry for Ronovanwrites Weekly Haiku Challenge.
To fight for my life
With raw hunger I will strike
I will not give in.
I strike out at life
Hunger is the only way
*Anna, my friend stay.
* A name for Anorexia.

No need to Rebel

She will lead the dance.

This week Ronovanwrites has given us the two words Lake and Calm.
I wrote a trio of Haiku, a before, during and after.
Lake and Calm
Gently the lake flows
Softly bathed in the moonlight
So deep and so calm
The waves lap my toes
The water fills me with calm
At one with the lake
Cold, pulled from the lake
In death she looked peaceful, calm
All her travails gone.

This week the talented Ronovanwrites has given us Heart and Need as our weekly prompts for his Haiku Poetry Challenge.
I have done a Haiku and a Tanka.
You have broken me
Tenderness is at the heart
Of all that I need.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once a work of art
Destroyed, spite lays at the heart
Jealousy maybe
Spoiled because of its beauty
Is this envy what we need.

This is my entry to Ronovanwrite’s weekly Haiku challenge.
Please don’t waste your life
Chargrin is too much effort
Joy is much less strife
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
On the edge I stand
Broken and full of chargrin
All joy lost and banned
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Give me joy and life
Chargrin is a waste of time
Run towards the light
Salty like hot dogs (and tears). Sweet like marmalade (and life).
