One for every syllable

One for every syllable

A Poem by Sasha
"

These are 17 haikus I jotted down last night in the name of boredom & being silly. They are posted in the exact order I wrote them. Some are better than others. Favorites are bolded.

"

With a simple kiss

I explain all my feelings

And he understands


Feeling love's almost

Impossible when you're too

Busy feeling fear


When you look up at

The evening sky, what do you 

See, stars aside


Everyone is blessed

From when we draw our first breaths

Up until our deaths


There is no such thing

As parting in sweet sorrow

When you love someone


With a bleeding heart 

Often come a tired mind

And a broken spirit


Only give up when

You do not have anything

Else that you can give


Please forgive my sins

Unless you've committed none

And I'll forgive yours


Being jocular 

Is both selfish and selfless

We all need laughter


Eyes blinded by hate

Are worse than eyes truly blind

They only see lies


What does money mean

If it's allowed to decide

Who lives and who dies


I am who I am

You can love it or leave me

I'll remain unchanged


Super Mario

Leapt with a loud "Here we go!"
And landed on Peach


"Hey, little mama..."

"Yeah, I'll give that a never."

"Ouch. That one hurt him."


What would Jesus do

If he met someone like you

He'd get upset too


If there's a reason 
For everything that's happened

Tell me what it is


Every little thing

Is gonna be alright, right

That one guy said so

Author's Note

Sasha
Interpret "Super Mario" as you will. :P
Also, the only rule I followed is 5-7-5. These aren't formal but if I've made a haiku faux pas, feel free to tell me. The image is paper saying "This is your God" in reference to the money haiku.

Eyes blinded by hate
Are worse than eyes truly blind
They only see lies

Although I cannot speak to how bad being blind really IS I can say i really liked the message in this one.....people that are fueled by hatred are the worst....


Super Mario
Leapt with a loud "Here we go!"
And landed on Peach

What would Jesus do
If he met someone like you
He'd get upset too


Hahaha, those two definitely made me laugh. It was fun reading these all together since one would talk about the problem with hatred and the next would be about Peach and Mario getting down......a nice variety and a whole lot of fun to read. Nice work!

Boredom and Being
Savour such soft luxuries
Silly to waste them

Favourite so bold
Telling as it should be told
Words freely unfold

I liked all of them. If you did all these in one night, that's pretty damn talented. They all flow effortlessly. Great job.

Hah, when I was reading the Super Mario... Ah, that's sad for my "juvenile" mind to interpret that the way I did! xP
I really, really loved them all! Some were funny, some were romantic, others were dead serious. I really, really loved them (which I just said no less than 1 sentence ago xD) And if this is what happens when you get bored, please, be bored more often!
