    Icy windows steal my stare
    Frozen memories 
    Healing pain fragile like glass

    I can't sleep tonight
    Windy trees and restless knees
    Hot flush, doona off

    Hot flush, doona off
    My body is a furnace
    Cold now, doona on

    Cold now, doona on
    No nipples to tell the tale
    So strange that they're gone

    Parts gone and parts moved
    My body is a stranger
    I don't recognise

    Restless mind the fire burns out
    I rekindle it
    Stare at new flames with some hope

    Sleep no more
    my body yells
     night time is a living hell

    A haiku for you @Annie C.

    Old man boab tree
    He can take the nuts you hurl
    Your tears wash the scars

    Thinking cap is on. Damn where did that brain cell go?
    That's a beauty.
    I am taking pity on him lately.  So here goes - 

    Old man boab tree
    Some times I feel older than you
    You are there for me.

    Not as good as yours but it will do.

    At night the cracks widen
    The pain seeps out
    During the day, wallpaper.
