Don’t wake me up yet
I was almost getting there
That was the good part

Make my dream come true
She whispered into the coin
She threw down the well

Where a pretty tree
Stands black against the sunset
I’d like to sit there

Where did your heart go
After he broke it all up
I hope you kept it

Apart
Unpredictably
Chaotically
Into small pieces
Sometimes right in half
Maybe salvageable
But a lot of dust left behind
Eroded
Disintegrated
How does the cookie crumble?

Send that sappy text
The one with your heart in it
You won’t regret it

We
How long did it take
You
To realize there was a
“You”?
That there were more than
“Me”
And something greater than
“Me”?
And that there were
“He”
And that there were
“She”
And that there were
“They”
And that the difference wasn’t always clear to
You?
How long did it take?

Strange how a leaf falls
Despite never standing up
How’d it get up there?

033 / Happy July 4th!
The night sky explodes
Into a million colors
Happy July 4th
Hello, Friends! I know, I know. Posting a 4th of July Haiku on the 5th? What am I thinking??
Whoops!
But I hope everyone’s having a great summer, so far! I’m working hard to get a number of my projects in order. It turns out, trying to juggle several creative projects and hold down a steady job is… well… a juggling act!
One of these projects, of course, is this website! Publishing more content and flexing my creative writing skills as often as I can! One of my greatest struggles has been consistently finding time to write every day. And once I skip one day, it becomes exponentially more difficult to convince myself to write the next day. When I’m struggling to write longer-form content, these Haiku and Senryu pieces help keep at least some of the dust off my fingertips!
Anyway, thanks for reading!
