infidelity
can be to one's own self for
choosing another
person's happiness over
being faithful to your own

let me
want your future —
   one that's
   certain and sturdy
and need your now —
   where we're
   calm and quiet

where waking up
   doesn't hurt
   anymore
   because it's
   no longer
   just
   a dream

Lazy | Haiku

slow mornings are for
taking his time to hold me
like a lazy cat

Honest | Haiku

it started with his
voice — deep — then it was his eyes
when he smiled — honest

Secondhand | Haiku

deep voice drew me in —
close enough to inhale his
secondhand stories

Soften | Haiku

I can change the room
but every time you enter
all the noise softens

Empty-handed | Haiku

I chase with my eyes
what my hands cannot touch — I'm
left empty-handed
