If I could yoga
and coping mechanism
my way to freedom,
don’t you think I would?
If journaling could stifle
these unwanted flames,
I’d have filled thousands
of libraries by now, books
weeping with longing.
This violent slow burn,
unquenchable, demanding
complete surrender.

The haiku structure is deceptively free-flowing, which aligns with the theme of struggling to keep passion within bounds. Love the phrase "books weeping with longing."
