This is my story… where I was, where I am and where I am going, told in 5 haiku
(1)
Empty spaces left
Paralysed by the sadness
How do I get through?
(2)
Emptiness inside
Torn open by losses
Can’t be filled by food
(3)
Misery descends
Pretending to be cheerful
one face for the world
(4)
Happy memories
start to replace emptiness
returning to life
(5)
World filled with dancing
life changing realisation
I have to repair
(6)
Building a new me
Growing stronger every day
Memories honored
Ok…there are 6 Haiku…the story was missing something with only 5

Sam, this post made me cry. You painted a beautiful, poignant picture with your words. Giving you a great big hug all the way from Las Vegas. You are an inspiration.
