Becomes lonely and pressure
Work is a burden
Thought I might like it
more than I do; that was dumb
My heart pounds bigger
She smokes alone now
She knows her days are short now
Someday? Kids kills butts
Quiet is a word
Noisy is a word we hate:
All words are iffy
I miss them sort of
I sleep late all by myself
I wake: all alone
Haiku is easy
When at a loss for words yo:
I write anyway
Loneliness sucks balls
Happiness is a full house:
I knew that always
Kids loud and away
Echo here this quiet night:
I hear like always
Like always, I speak
a poem here, a word there:
sweet tart words: come home.
dude. So weird. I am sitting here in my house late night for the FIRST TIME EVER ALONE!! My kids and my man are away for the night a couple hours from LA and I am here. In a quiet house. And here is your haiku. So perfect for me.

Nice Haiku(s). It's funny how you can't wait for alone time, but when it actually gets here - you want them back.
ReplyDeletethe grass is always greener on the other side- till you actually get there.
ReplyDeleteyour such a good mom. they totally miss you more.
Currently alone
ReplyDeleteI can catch up, maybe breath
Want to say, "You rock."
Oh you and your words again. Amazing. Sometimes you need that time away from them to really appreciate them. Think about those hugs you'll get when they return. And if you you're really lonely, I'll drop Nash off and have him run through the house screaming for a few minutes to help you appreciate the silence. Or he's available to sleep over and wake you up a couple times in the middle of the night to cuddle. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteMost unpoetic: awesomeness!
ReplyDeleteNicely done madam. I enjoyed every one.
ReplyDeleteYou still glad they're back???
ReplyDeleteSee- now your haiku is so great! Mine would be all mobid thoughts about someone breaking into my house, and something horrible happening to my family and this is what my life would be like without them, etc.
ReplyDeleteI love getting into your head.
