You shouldn't have drawn a line

Shouldn't have gone to the other side

Because now its your fault that I cry

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

No one has powers in matters of the heart

If you have preferences

At least don't be unjust

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

I'd love to see you in my place

See you go through all you put me through

And see how that ends with you

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

Is being unaware a sin?

Or ignorance a crime?

If so...I apologize

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

Accusations are

Paper thin

Weightless

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

What defines the dichotomy of above and beneath?

Marks the line of differentiation of these opposites?

Running forever parallel they are separated

By the discrete boundaries you define

Maria Yousuf

Beauty is infinite to the perspective that sees it

Timeless and untouched

Preserved and reborn

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

I'll never sink through your quicksand of charm

I maybe dreamy but I'm hard headed too

I'll never make the mistake of letting loose and falling for you

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

Don't ever make the mistake

Of slipping on assumptions

And falling for implications

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

The teal sea designs images from its diary

Images telling stories from its memories

Stories I've never heard or ever seen

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

I shall sew all the fallen petals together

Bind all moments together

And create a rose of your memories

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

Is it too much to ask ?

To be the one for one?

and be compared to none?

Haiku By Maria Yousuf

.:Black Cat:.

Live in the ashes of another man's hopes,

breath in another man's misery

make a living with his bloody demise,

make his chained soul an opportunity

Stab a bulls eye in his wound,

feed and devour his aches n pain

drown his piercing white cries,

survive with his loss, make it all your gain

Be the friction for his agony,

the deep set ache, his enmity

be the hollow trunk of his body,

the dried bark of a his tree

Be the black cat crossing his path,

the bad luck that befalls his way

be the barrier blocking his rise,

the reasons for his hate
