Memoir Haikus - Epic Journey of Healing and Mental Well-Being
-FIGHTING-
Greek epic poem.
Transcending for permanence.
Battle warrior
No longer around.
Life became complicated.
You are number one.
Life will greatly change.
Think about you all the time.
Never let you go.
Innocence deprived.
Staying positive and strong.
Failed exerting control.
Society danger.
Protective order consent.
Tough situation.
Seems no help for me.
Suffered severe damages.
Lots I can’t ask for…
Green light, on the go.
Work, children, chores, friends, repeat
Red light, stop, patience.
Not be impulsive.
Clearing the mind, acceptance.
Focus on priorities.
Please leave me alone.
Coping without acceptance.
Peace and happiness.
I was not perfect.
Never put my own needs first.
A loving person.
False accusations.
Petitioner rewarded.
Known red flags ignored.
Not seeing my kids.
Was the primary caretaker.
Days become months, years.
Can’t stop the pain.
No access to the children.
A memory trigger.
-BREATHING-
Meet-up local group.
Recently separated.
Wimped out going out.
Research article.
Parental alienation syndrome.
Child custody.
Tell them dad loves them.
Pawns in your games of madness.
Leave our kids at peace.
Living life freely.
Thank you for good memories.
Free from your control.
Against false merits.
I get to access my house.
Sheriff escorted.
Retrospectively.
Examining what a win means.
Legal damages.
A glass of vino.
An eloquent conductor.
And self correction.
Holidays approach.
Thinking about family.
Goodbye to my kids.
House is quiet now.
Myself a decent person.
Just the cat and I.
Loud hallelujah.
Experienceing new life.
Joy for being here.
Decision making.
Destiny and influence.
Contrary forces.
Grief, a thick dense fog.
I just want the pain to stop.
Tonight see little.
Nobody knows but me.
I will always be your dad.
Loving you, stay strong.
-HEALING-
Sense of awareness.
Nothing is comfortable.
Practice mindfulness.
I like to live in peace.
Is counter intuitive.
Not going to war.
Have a change of hearts.
Not the habitual thing.
Insecurity.
Tired, isolated.
Tenderness, difficult times.
Your inspiration.
Fall, get up, marching.
New beginnings each day.
Moving-on takes time.
A break in chatter.
Clinging thoughts and memories.
What cannot be grasped.
Traverse memories.
Happiness lives in the mind.
Positive people.
Psychodynamic.
The destructive behavior.
Constantly aware.
Looking for answers.
Letting go is important.
Satisfy hunger.
I am your dad.
Grieve despite you are living.
Peace and love awaits.
