My Heart's Beating Like a Drum
Haiku by Bernadeth A. Abrigo
You look happier,
My heart is beating like a drum,
I'm scared to let go.

This poem delves into the complexities of a couple navigating a tumultuous relationship. The girl experiences a sense of unease witnessing her partner's apparent happiness with another woman, fearing he may choose someone else. Despite the pain, she is reluctant to let go, determined to fight for their relationship.
