When you struggle with your fears,
Your hesitation and expectation in life
They are all your shadows
Follow you days and nights
From a distance to see my own shadow is pretty, at least I feel this way, after some time to look back all the struggles in life, I feel my life is worth it, no matter how other people would like to say…
PS. For no reasons, I just like to take all the shadows shot, shadow of all kinds…Click the link below to see more shadow shots, and I will try to post up my shadow shot every Sunday.
Hesitation and expectation in life
They’re shadows follow you days and nights
Struggle with fears to survive

Lovely pictures, beautiful quatrain.
hi M2S.. welcome to Haiku Heights.. :) very glad that u have shared your first try at haiku with us... good to have u join in... your words are wise, and well written..
like Vivinne has mentioned, this is a quatrain :) Haiku is three lines usually :) with a maximum of seventeen syllables(pronunciation sounds). Tradition takes a 5-7-5 syllable format for the three lines too.. Please do try it.. It's a challenge to get a lot of meaning in three short lines I feel.. :)
Lastly, I liked your photography :) a nice shot..!
love your photos and the message of the quatrain!
you're into photography too? me, loving it also now.. :)
i used my own photo for my haiku offering this week...:) do check!
helo M2S :) you're getting there.. some struggles are worth the effort. and your tercet is indeed a wonderfully poignant take :D
I hope I don't sound like I'm preaching, but again, a syllable is not the same as a word :) a syllable is a pronunciation sound, like Married to Singaporean has 3 words and 8 syllables.. coz u pronounce it Mar-ried to Sin-ga-po-re-an..
You can check out, The Free Dictionary where the syllables have been shown clearly in the word. like He.si.ta.tion has 4 parts there, so four syllables :) just search the word..
Glad you're not giving up on a haiku.. Good work with the effort.. the struggle is paying off in instalments.. as it does at the start :D
P.S: Please try a different template. This one eats up the comments of bigger length.. :(
well said,
agree.
