night

Standard
  • *first attempt at creating haiku*

it’s long,

stretches

ages.

______________

wide awake

at this hour,

dawn passes by.

___________________

reliving the past,

pages haunt me.

a face lost now.

________________

smiling portraits,

leaping for the sun.

a faded sepia.

__________________

language forgotten.

fire-slaked tongues

a river washes by.

_______________

night stars console

rains offer refuge

to a silenced heart.

  1. Fair attempt! With just a bit of attention to the number of syllables in each line, you’ll be well on your way. I’ve tried a little too but I’m not quite as brave to post yet 🙂

    • you should post too…otherwise how would you know of the mistakes? And thanks by the way. But it’s really my first attempts at writing haikus…
      thanks for your advice by the way, i’ll try to make them better according to norms.
