Sunku 5 Workshop

Sadness
Feels like crap
In this sunken place

Joyless
Is as a
withered dead rose

Spiritless
Have no zeal
Under dark clouds
—-
The sunsets
And it rises
Both are beautiful

Storms rage
Hides the sun
Nature just waits

Roses
Strives and grows
Strong among thorns

SunKu 3 Workshop

I’m bored
Life suck
Stuck in this house

I Write
I Create
I Watch YouTube

I Feel
Powerless
Trapped this cage
—-
This room
These four walls
Like a prison

Gotta
Find a park
To nature walk

Swan Lake
I need you
And your life force
—-
Hump day
Will it end
I Feel insane

Nature
I Got to go
And reconnect

My Car down
Somebody
come get me
—-
This house
It drives me
Straight up the wall

Now a Sunku, with rhyme

No scars
the past gone
you cannot see

when dark
quivering
so pitifully

I learn
what it was
that made me be me

The first version-
No outward
damage can be seen
the past,
therefore can not have been.

Still in the dark I sometimes see
the things that made me truly me.
