You don't know me
I might beat you
I'm better than you expect

here's mine:

I used to collect
shiny state quarters, until...
the ice cream truck came.

Humpty-Dumpty-san:
If you go on a diet,
you won't fall again.

:D

darkness

Thanks~

Watching the Sky,
Fade into Amber,
A sigh escapes and so does my life.

...is that emo or is it just me?

doesn't matter... you have some skills... nice metaphors and exactly 18 syllables :3 Keep 'em coming! :pinksong:

hear the heart stopping
the body gets cold
darkness... is that what awaits us?

^_^ I love it. ^^^

Exasperating,
Unable To Withstand,
Your Lurking In The Darkness...

Excessum 07-12-2007 01:46 PM
glass gets empty
you walk away
rapacity?

Seeing through closed eyes,
Hearing through covered ears,
Unable to whisper your name...

Backing down,
Quivering with anticipation,
Controlling emotion.

Very interesting... can be understood in at least 3 different ways, nice!

Here's mine:

dancing around the fire
letting the life burn
till dawn goes to sleep

..Three? I can only think of two.. O-o; FIRE~! ^__^

Billowing like steam,
Unable to breathe,
The heat lighting up disaster

Excessum 07-13-2007 05:33 PM
feeding my fears
thinking about us
running away

Fyer 07-13-2007 05:35 PM
Bright-lit skies,
Versus moon-lit nights,
Caresses of another- held on tight.

You tried to recognize the signs
To avoid another mistake
It was useless

nice, you are definitely progressing! ^^

like meteor
you passed me by
and left my heart willing

I always thought Haiku was strictly 5 syllables, then 7 syllables, and then 5 again. But after some quick searching, apparently non-Japanese Haiku is, as said in the first thread post, a maximum of no more than 3 lines and 18 syllables. Anyway, writing something quick here.

Mountain with fire
A blue as clear as water
Amidst winter's cool

yeah, that's what I was always told too. >.> It's what I'm used to now.

Shouldn't be like this
Working in a cube all day
Bitter loneliness

Excessum 07-21-2007 03:21 PM
duck tape the heart
and run to find a hammer
don't cry
