Romantic Haikus

Love Haiku

 

Inamorata—

He stalks the sweet scent of me,

Wanting without end.

✥ 

Dread Haiku

 

I fear his cold hand

Holds the glass heart meant for me—

Small pieces falling.

 

 

Obsession Haiku

 

Morning brings it back,

What night tried to bury deep—

The echo of want.

 

Longing Haiku I

 

Time’s sea stretches wide,

Wider than the day is long—

My want walks flowly.

 

Longing Haiku II

 

The tide does not move,

Seconds fold into themselves—

My breath waits for yours.

 

Longing Haiku III

 

I count every hour,

But none of them carry you—

Only your absence.
