Twelve haiku: dreams, come true or broken

I

thoughts are wandering 
leave the safety of childhood 
thoughts are wondering

II

future, once a myth 
caught in dreams and secret songs 
starlight blinding eyes

III

how are we feeble 
our strengths absent and hidden 
how are we limping

IV

doors, opened or closed 
voices chanting morning dreams 
rainbow like a dome

V

brittle memories 
crumpled seas of yesteryear 
stations abandoned

VI

people do steal hearts 
seems they do it all the time
 never give ‘m back

VII

face-distorting frown 
shape steps from its tarnished shade 
ugliness revealed

VIII

here in these wetlands 
no way to keep your boots dry 
now it starts to rain

IX

how do evenings speak 
subdued breaths of hurried wings 
never to look back

X

fangs loom over me 
venom shoots into my veins
pain is limitless

XI

homicidal heart 
core of man’s anatomy 
veins network of lies

XII

wishing I could see 
all that’s hidden in the bright
 pain and ache and hurt
