Emotional Sanity

Emotional sanity ...

 

purge my soul in an ocean blue...

 

tips of waves crashing...

 

white in color and lashing out...

 

stabalize my life for now.

this looks more like tanka than haiku, which is fine, i love tanka, i havent read any in a very long time, so this was very refreshing. again, you end with bit of a stunning juxstaposition, the crashing and the lashing, and then stabalizing, nicely done. really enjoyed this.

Sanity is often like the ebb and flow of the ocean. Crashing and lashing at one point and then calm and serene at another. Eternity is endless when you gaze across the watery expanse. So few words, but so strong an impact.

I don't think anyone, over thirty, has not been through this emotional purging; stabilizing. Me have to stabilize for our emotional sanity. You penned it well!

emotional sanity... wait, that's possible? :)

the waves lashing it out in their white foam is an image that hits like a whipcrack.
such a gift.

You manage to bring in the temper of the ocean: calm, purifying, yet angry and "lashing out". "Stabalize my life for now". This is just amazing. I don't think I could ever get my point across in this short of lines and for it to be so high-quality. This is one beauty of a piece!
