A Haiku & a Short Poem (grief themes)

Haiku, untitled

Ground shifts underfoot,

sliding into the void of

A yawning sinkhole.

==========================

'Apart'

I am no longer whole.

I am apart from myself:

At once alive with those

I love and who love me;

At once across the veil,

Passing my token to Charon

As I step on the meadows of Elysium.
