21
Ran five miles home,
A long sprint to hide my shame;
A longer shower
22
An empty vessel.
I won’t miss you when you’re gone
I tell myself now
23
Last look through the door.
My heart stretched to breaking point
To see you with him
24
A look, lingering
Slices through my defences,
Leaves my wound exposed
25
My sun and my sin,
Guiding me through moonless night
Blinding me to faults
26 – For Emma
Purple skirt kisses
Next to the bar quiz machine
You looked amazing

A Certain Point of View 
Aw, Emma, I feel as thought I know her… and you.

There has been a large portion of old heartbreak and regrets poured out here, but that was all pre-Emma… I’ll save the happy, cheesy stuff for her in person!

Cool! Leaves quite a bit to the imagination, which is as it should be! 🙂

That’s one of the reasons I love haiku so much – such word economy forces the imagination to fill in the blanks, and the writer has just three lines with which to fill their world
