When my heart wants more.
Yet your heart has grown stone cold.
Pray my tears will scar.
A dyslexic dreamer who once thought reading and writing were beyond reach. Yet here I am, an artist, wordsmith, and illustrator—ready to weave stories and poems from my artwork.

How does it work?
You really pack a lot of emotion into this one. Well done, Daphsam!
Oh, ouch! For you, but also the recipient of your knifey tears!
This was so poignant and emotional! Loved your Haiku!
This is good, but I prefer the previous inverse haiku you published (which was absolutely stellar).
More stories from Daphsam and writers in Poets and other communities.
Your love melts my heart. Sadly, you don't feel the same. Two hearts so apart. **********************
