Haiku 298/365

Oh how I yearn and Yet time escapes me. I fill It up. Hollow, still.

Living in a web Caught under your trap, your spell Waiting to be bit

Strange entanglement Our hearts tied and under skies Of ribbons of light.

I wait for your touch The light enters my eyes and Love emits from both

Silence prevents growth Allows injustice, allows Stagnant behavior.

Clued in or forced out Seeking water in a drought What’s there…is what’s there

Inescapable Sun drips down shutters, on me Asleep, in a dream

The sounds of raindrops Hit the ground while I’m running And I’ll keep running.

The tides pull on you… You were bound to rock the boat! I say in hindsight.

Circling through space— I find you; you hide your face. Now nothing brings peace…
