Peeking into threads,
discovering this new world,
and learning it's ways.

(This is my first Haiku, so bear with me *crosses fingers*)

The subtle truth is
that between these faded lines
lies truth of the past.

Leaving worlds behind
I fall so sudden from home.
My memory now fades...

memories of you
two sparrows in the twisted
old lilac branches
忍ぶれど色にいでにけりわが恋はものや思ふと人の問ふまで
― 平兼盛

“If I seem to wander, if I seem to stray,
remember that true stories seldom take the straightest way.”
― Kvothe, in The Name of the Wind

What were the use of my creation if I were entirely contained here?

Watching bright stars fall
and wondering if I've missed
my chance to reach them.

Moaning like the cat,
alone and lusting for soul,
I dream her come back.

Floating in the sky,
The moon bathes the sleeping world
In a sliver glow.

Sleep's a brief reprieve
That only makes me question
Why I dare to dream.

Dusty winds come close
Blowing in prosperity...
And you out with it.

You may not know it
But sometimes my only wish is
To fall into Dark.

We breathe and compress
the smokescreen that blocks our view;
we are very dumb.

in the morning light,
my vision scattered in arcs,
i search for you, blind.
I am a forest fire and an ocean, and I will burn you just as much
as I will drown everything you have inside.

The whispers don't cease
and the cold is not enough
to numb broken thoughts.

our chit-chat cuts off
when we see the icebergs fall
and end in silence
  








You are going to love some of your characters because they are you, or some facet of you, and you are going to hate some characters for the same reason.
