“Empty exit”

Empty exit

Music made with tears, /

dissonance flows over me. /

Words clang: bullet, heart.

“Plays”

Plays

Time plays with shadows,

with colors, with empty nights,

with hands forgetting.

“Hope”

Hope

Bird house hangs empty, /

its body decayed, waiting /

for song’s first echo.

“Face”

Face

Face at the window, /

I call upon the dwelling /

empty of your soul.

“Walking”

Walking

Walking empty /

by the early flowers /

as though blooms never end.

“Light”

Light

Before the windows /

Shines the ceiling lamp, hanging /

Empty and yet full.

“Silhouette”

Silhouette

Bare tree, empty house: /

silhouetted by the setting sun, /

undressed by evening.

Empty, weathered house. /

Time has come and all have left, /

carrying echoes.

“Old Cowards”

Old Cowards

Leaves are old cowards, /

falling from the empty love /

of winter’s embrace.

Haiku and photo: “How”

How

Cloud, how can this be?

You floating full in the sky.

Me standing empty?
