Poetry Challenge #1: Haikus

SL Haikus

1.

faces become dreams

bleed into reality

the lines mean nothing

2.

your eyes bore through me

even when i see you as

you really are and cry

3.

creativity

explored with unknown limits

horizens expand

4.

hues and shapes and shades

subtle differences

on these things i feed

5.

spare me. know the truth.

sleep through the day, live nightly.

build alternatives.

6.

I wander farther

know less, learn little deaths

protect my walls

7.

myriads of masks

this is a beautiful dream

stealing everything

8.

become obsessed

lose hours, days, months, then years

trapped in glass tubes

9.

between you and me

there isn't much i don't see

i just choose to shut my mouth

10.

such a pretty lie

when it burns, i'll light the pyres

watch the skies sparkle
