Haiku: Ends

Silence and darkness
Fall asleep and lose my friends –
watching the world end

Haiku #18

In the sunny square
some old friends pausing to talk;
plans for the weekend

You believe something
I will take another tack
We can still be friends

Friend

you’re not restless
like me

my day must be filled
the thirst of my mind
quenched

set free

and you are the space
between

the silent moments

a day dream

my closet friend
always there

never seen
