Themes/Dreams

I've always wanted to write something that flowed together, something with a noticeable theme that didn't feel repetitive. In the mean time I'm just writing lazy almost-haikus about dreams. 

The Morning
His hands were soft
The tide turned at midnight 
I always leave first 

Waiting Room
The smell of coffee
I read your eyes like a book
We are all alone 

Ocean Dwellers
The ship sunk slowly
Loud footsteps in the hallway
Bodies always float

Our Summer
I swallowed the sun
My heart already knew you
Bright stars burn quickly 

Accidents Happen
They lent together
Triangles hold the most weight
I watched them break

Pancakes
You hate morning breath
Whispers into the cover
I drove home smiling

Love E x

Haiku

I've been enjoying poetry so much lately, but had never written any until recently. These are my first attempts at haiku. 



Oceans away

They took them away

Laws that protect the guilty

The tide always turns 


Self-medicated 

The hit numbs the pain

I heard your cries in the night 

Wrong prescription
