Live

A poem about elation.

I was drowning
In the crowd
All of my
Expectations
Were strangling me
But then You came
Now I am free
In the endless sky
I can fly
So fly with me
We can soar
We can live

The love for haiku poetry was sparked during world literature studies, drawn to its ability to convey profound ideas in just a few syllables. Over the years, hundreds of haikus were written, inspired by moments of awe in everyday life, many of which are featured in the book Blue Harlequin. These haikus aim to inspire an appreciation for the simple beauty in life’s fleeting moments.

Thank you for entering your poem into my competition!

I am honoured this is your first poem and I had the chance to read it.

The whole thing made me feel happy, elated :) and alive all at once.

Your words reminded me of the song O by Coldplay. Listen to it if ever you get the chance. They are a wonderful band and have often inspired me to write in times when I have felt loss.

I really liked this. Good luck with the rest of your writing!
