Haiku Friday: A Blogger’s Torture

Dark clouds overhead
Please let us weather this storm
Crossing my fingers

My stomach in knots
Did we offend you, karma?
Let things go our way.

I wish I could tell
All these worries in my head
But I must stay mute

Want to know how to drive a blogger insane? Give her news that directly affects her family and stresses her out, but then tell her she can’t blog about it because people involved may read the blog, which could affect the outcome. It’s killing me.

I want to explain what’s going on. I want to whine and cry and ask for a shoulder to lean on, spilling out my fears to any who would listen. It’s a situation I’ve never had to deal with before, it’s scary, and being unable to type out those words is almost painful. It’s such a big part of my life right now that writing posts without discussing it feels sort of dishonest.

As soon as I’m able, I will share everything. But for now, I can only write these vague lines. Slightly therapeutic, but overall still unsatisfying to me, and I’m sure to you, too.

(Oh, and before you ask: I’m not pregnant. And everyone is healthy. Just wanted to make that clear.)

To play along for Haiku Friday, follow these steps:

1. Write your own haiku on your blog. You can do one or many, all following a theme or just random. What’s a haiku, you ask? Click here.

2. Sign the Mister Linky below or at Jennifer’s blog with your name and the link to your haiku post (the specific post URL, not your generic blog URL). We will delete your link if it doesn’t go to a haiku. If you need help with this, contact Jennifer or myself.

3. Pick up a Haiku Friday button to display on the post or in your sidebar by clicking the button above.
