About the Creator
Parvathi J
Through my pages, I find the quiet complexities of pain dwelling in a solitary space, burdening life’s endless demands, and unburdening the voiceless noise.
Witnessing the questioning, I speak the deeper silence of my voice.

If You Love Me, You'll Do It
I met Jason when I was five years old. I could say that I loved him from the moment I saw him. He was so handsome to me and I felt in awe by his presence. When they introduced him as the new kid in school, I wanted to be his friend right away. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember his smile and how he didn't seem shy. He appeared confident and ready to learn. I waved at him and said "hello," before anyone else could even say a word. He sat next to me, and I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He looked so happy as he said, "Yes!"

This one caught me off guard in the best way. The image of the millipede—so unexpected, yet so meditative. ‘Coils in solitude’ is a line I keep thinking about. I’m working through all the haiku entries now, and yours brought such a quiet, grounding energy. Thank you for sharing it.
Very striking imagery! Great haiku, Parvathi!
Great for the pede...staying cool.
I'm not a fan of millipedes or any kinda insects but your Haiku made me smile. I loved it!
