Haikus based on How We Fall Apart by Katie Zhao.

Appearance was perfect 
Nothing left, a Web of lies 
Alone yet never 

Nobody knew it 
Unknown, everyone struggling  
Mentally harmful 

Betray or study
Completed both, almost died 
Forgiven at last 

I wrote these Haikus a while ago and I realised I never posted them on my blog. The simple format of haikus really lets you understand the basic message and sometimes simple is best. There is beauty to be found in the bare and of course my first book based poems had to be on How We Fall Apart by Katie Zhao.
