Words? What about actions?
Haiku
Your words mean nothing.
When you tell me anything,
the winds grow louder.

About Writing
Most people talk about things that bother them as a way to vent their emotions, another way is through writing. As I sit writing in my car, I ponder how much writing, in itself, has helped me become the person I am today. I have endless amounts of pages filled with poems, stories, and sometimes random blurbs. Writing is a window into your soul. The simple action of writing has benefited me; by helping me to achieve a better memory, helping me to learn and grow intellectually, and helping me to communicate my emotions.

Wow, this is so spot on
Reminds me of the chinese saying 耳边风- which roughly means your words pass through my ears like the wind/ I'm not listening.
sweat and to the point.
Short sweat and to the point.
This is what I like about a well-written haiku. The language is simple and yet, the depth is there. They get you thinking deeply in just a snapshot. Congrats on TS.
In the midst of chaos and noise, Your words find their quiet place. In their gentle whisper, I hear a universe of meaning, Unspoken, but deeply felt. 🌬️💬🌌
