| Emotions I go through while hoping; on pen and paper |
Hope is so clingy
Non-existantial triumph
Dissapointingly
Linking the haiku to this week's Verse First on Poets United : Patterns, as I believe hope comes and goes in patterns.

Is there a key for our understanding? :P #JustAsking
ReplyDeleteBtw, The Haiku - Well Penned. :)
Definitely, Ajay, I'd describe those feelings on my horrendous drawing as stages (each box). First is everything is grey but you try to see black and white. You try to find hope. Second is when you try to sort out things into black and white boxes, your own way. But they only keep falling one over another. Third is when it gets clear you're about to face something that will break your heart for ever, but you try to cling on to hope. Fourth is when you try to avoid the situation altogether to avoid getting hurt. Fifth is when you hope against all odds that something good will happen out of your insane situation. 7th is when that doesn't happen and so you cry, on the inside. 8th is when you start losing hope; those wires hanging on to you to keep you stable are one by one pulled off. 9th is when it really starts to ache in your chest. 10th is when you delude yourself and let all emotions drown you (circles of complex thoughts inside complex circles). And then. There's no more hope left. You don't even feel disappointment anymore. You feel nothing.
DeleteWow!
DeleteThat was awesome. :)
:) Thank you. I'm glad you asked!
DeleteHope does come and go for some, and surely a pattern often exists. I believe we can learn much from documenting our own feelings and concurrent circumstances in order to identify patterns. By recognizing and understanding habits, patterns and triggers, we have the power to embrace or change them.
ReplyDeleteI never thought that way! Thanks a lot. That's a brilliant way to coordinate your life! :D

DeleteBeautiful haiku Chhavi! The picture and the haiku beautifully explains the dark side of hope when things don't work out the way we planned.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, though keeping hope disappoints us badly, we can't live without hoping!
