Half Moon Sea Sinking: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

As the half moon sinks/
deep into the sea, she meets/
herself. We find us.

or
we connect.

Hearing Your Voice: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku

Your voice is lilting./
Like droplets o’er river rocks,/
you sooth and comfort.

You don’t read my poems./
My writing’s all about you./
You wouldn’t turn green.

Blood drains from my face. /
My hands turn cold and clammy./
Your silence scares me.

I don’t want to be/
someone you keep around just/
so you won’t hurt me.

Maybe the reason/
you’re fighting leaving is that /
you’re not supposed to.

Now I’m the one who’s/
sleepless. I guess I awake /
feeling my heart ache.

With this many red/
flags, should you sometimes just slam /
on the brakes and stop?

Y did she care who/
was shallow and self-centered?/
Y’d both go silent?

You’re never lonely/
once you, like a river’s true/
path, find someone else./
