Snow falls on black fields

Cherry trees wither alone

I shall rest beneath.



Night falls on the land

Borders between life and death

Ink traces the moon.



She made no promise

Here I shall remain and wait

Until the stars fade.



Emptiness echoes

As waves upon the ocean

Where there are no shores.



She smiled at me

Lost inside her kindly eyes

She drifted away.



When I am to die

Do not mark my resting place

Let me fade away.



Pain is transient

Yet a gloom pervades the spirit

A butterfly wilts.



Cherry trees blossom

Yet each petal reminds me

Of days long since past.



Snow falls in silence

A woman dances outside

She beckons to me.



Waves crash without end

The moon watches silently

As I embrace them.



Pink petals in fields

Where my brothers lie in red

I grow weary here.



Gnarled branches reach

Towards hollow winter skies

The wind whispering.



As I walk this path

I follow the stars above

I see not the earth.



Leaves drift on cold winds

Their crumbling siblings await

For their final rest.
A collection of 14 Haiku, about various topics.  These were quite fun to write!

too much darkness for me, especially within the last 24 hours.
