MY FIRST HAIKU

Six sunsets he said
Seven sunrises to see
Say your sorry's now



For death's icy sting
Searing all souls in its wake
Sure as spring will come

Apart from counting fingers to make sure I didn't have an extra syllable or two and tearing my hair out, it was generally an okay experience writing my first haiku.

Not exciting, no, not at all. Just hours of gruelling pain just to come up with two stanzas. So if you want to know what real pain feels like, try writing a haiku.

I did good though, didn't I? Let's just stick to the likert scale on this one, from strongly agree to neutral. XD

Also, sorry for the subject matter. I don't know why but I always hit a ton of inspiration when I'm writing about death. ☹😒

Enjoy-ish!
