FIVE HAIKUS TO A BROKEN LOVE

Shared experience,
Your clear eyes are like the sky,
And so I am lost.

She is everything,
There's no way I can compete,
But I choose to stay.

Where are we going?
I've leapt from my solid ground,
And now I free-fall.

Years have passed us by,
We are no longer children,
But we play this game.

A vanished prospect,
Your dark eyes now worlds of ache,
Where'd we go astray?
