A knife through my hand
crimson blood pouring out fast
A heart, numb, frozen.
*****
No contact, no love
Babies without touch, react
Doubt, afraid, for life.
*****
Your breath near mine, close
the beat of our hearts, different
Tears tell our story.
*****
Brittle bones, swollen
raw, excruciating pain
A Fibro Flare Up.
*****
Alone, we will be
No guarantee in life, death
Be at peace with One.
Stories told in tears—many of us are familiar with them…
Lady of Sorrows

Laurie,
I’m affiliated with a new national Pain organization that is not up on the web yet. (I’m not paid!)
With permission I would like to send them your Pain Haiku as they are interested in using creative expressions in promos and/or the site itself. However, I need written permission.
If you give permission send me an e-mail at judithwesterfield@gmail.com with a cut n’paste of the haiku you are giving permission for and whether if you want your name attached or want to remain anonymous.
Great haiku!
