I knew her, once.

I know a woman
She tells me stories of home
I don’t ask her why
And this one woman
She loves like she’s dying soon
I worry for her
I’ve known a woman
Who hid her tears when she cried
She would not dry them
I miss that woman
In my mind, she’s everywhere
Extraordinary
I knew a woman
But I took her for granted
Now she’s gone for good

Tis a good write...never did understand what haiku was about even though many have tried to explain....
I liked this poem though well written and tenderly composed...excellent write. |

Beautiful! Most of the time, I read haikus and notice immediately that they're haikus because the necessary syllable amounts make the lines jerky and awkward, but I honestly didn't realize these were haikus till I saw your comment because it flows so naturally and comfortably. Wonderful job- very eloquent, touching, emotional poem and the haiku pattern is well done :).
keep it up,
