We’ll Say Goodbye: Romantic ConTEXTing Haiku Lament

It’s easy to squash/
men’s enamoredization./
Just criticize them.

You’re right. I’m no fun/
anymore. Thanks for helping/
me see it. See ya!

To be a poet!/
To try so hard with phrases/
and words. To then fail.

When we understand/
that there’s not always just one/
“right way”, we can grow.

Once we finally/
see our true selves, we start to/
suspend disbelief.

If we find truths and/
master emotions from them,/
we perfect ourselves.

There is a point when/
experiencing is more/
vital than life.

She thought that I slept,/
but I was simply watching o’er/
her while she slumbered.

When she said writing/
my feelings wasn’t needed,/
she ripped off fingers.
