Pet Names Mean Nothing: Romantic ImproVerse Haiku

She called him “Babe”, then/
decided it did not mean/
anything to her.

She said how she liked/
to fall asleep to rain sounds./
She’d have liked this storm.

I almost get her/
out of my mind … and then she/
reappears again.

She spends her time in/
my blog*, reading. I’d prefer/
she spend time with me.

OR
*with/
my poems

I was called Clark Kent/
again. She would not check and/
rip open my shirt.

She needs to feel safe./
I need to feel loved. Are both/
possibilities?

Why do 70’s/
love songs make me miss her, a/
60s girl, right now?

Did I get* what I/
wanted or give her what she’d/
never known about**?

*take
**had before

I’d have thought that a/
Father’s Day wish from her was/
not an afterthought.
