Haiku

You laughed, so tickled;
High summer, beach, sandcastles,
And me in my scarf.


It's a cold sunshine,
These days without you; you know
That the nights are worse


Departure clock ticks.
My watch was set fast, and I,
I wish you away


Holding my breath in,
I was desperate to know
What your answer was.
