HaiKUS

my writing is sparse

I need you to feel this fire

words can not suffice

 

*

 

you play stranger games

yet I feel you're as anchored

as my rescue plane

 

*

 

when I reach slumber

your hair is strewn all over

solitary dawns

 

*

 

unreasonable

for a boy like me to cringe

in check-out aisles

 

*

 

I've only white lies

to explain why I just stare

over all their heads

 

*

 

did you always know

that when the wind starts to blow

I'd feel it here too?
