What She Waited For: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

He thought of her wait./
What she anticipated/
would have choked a horse.

She layed,
Languidly,
Lingering in his arms.

He, taut,
Held tightly,
Timidly thinking of speaking.

Silence drove their uncertainty.
Yet both were so sure.

She hears that I am/
disappointed. I only/
thirst for nourishment.

She hears that I am/
disappointed. I only/
thirst for nourishment.

Our calls end quickly./
That’s because I don’t want to/
extend sad goodbyes.

If I’m a liar/
and a cheater does that make /
goodbye easier?

Crying all night long/
makes it hard to open your/
eyes in the morning.

In the end, he thought,/
he always had hoped he’d helped/
them find joy and light.

Her insomnia,/
maybe, was caused by the fear/
of breaking his heart.
