Dark Alleys Won't Scare..

Written for Rebecca's Haiku My Heart...


Dark Alleys Won't Scare..

Ah, she waits
in a dark alley;
headlights blink

Fake smile grows;
covering her soul
she steps in

A dark night
gives hope of a  day
children wait

dark alleys
won't scare any more;
Ah, she waits..

RS:)

Broad day light;
I choose to write a
dark haiku..

  2. not even your precious moon appeared to lighten your haiku, but your love within remains loyal and present ready to rise.

    Took my breath away...

    Covering her soul she steps in.....and no darkness can touch the soul.. the luminiscent soul..
