Haiku: Butterflies and Blue Skies

They were so awful to me,

And yet

They seemed to care.

They manipulated,

Twisted,

Hurt,

And destroyed me.

And yet I can't

I can't believe we're here

Again.

I can't believe this is reality

Again.

But it's four years

Of a living hell for me.

Is like no other.

It is too deep

Too raw

Too real.

And as I stand here

Within its everlasting clutches

I find little bursts of hope.

And these little burst of light
