Black heart shudders from white death!

Courtesy



Fade into gauche naught
Eerie chill freezes his soul
Creepy emptiness 

Lopsided luck kills
Black heart shudders from white death
Engulfing silence







It's funny how darkness can engulf you so much, to such an extent sometimes... that you can get scared of the first ray of light!!!

This haiku is written for the picture prompt provided by the MAG and the OSI with the prompt 'LOPSIDED'.
