One, two, three, Steps as I Pace across the Hard, tile hall-way Making sure to keep beat. My feet thud softly in step with the music in my earbuds. My hands whirl with the music quickly. People are staring, but I don't notice, Because I am not pacing inside my head. In my brain, I am somewhere different and safe. I'm not pacing with the music; I AM the music. It seeps inside every part of my soul, heart, and being. I grin with pure excitement as I spin in another world.
I used to love haikus. Yeah, because they were easy and quick and small. But mostly because I loved counting the syllables. Now, haikus aren't really my thing. But I still love counting syllables. So I thought maybe this would be more up my alley. Count the syllables as you read. It's fun!
