Aw, thank you. Yes, that's the thing with haikus, so I was hoping it would work out - fingers crossed ;)

Very awesome work. It's hard to get your message across in a haiku, but you did it very well. <3

I used to be like that too. Every time I wrote, it had to come out at least two pages long, usually around five ;)

While that was the way I normally wrote, I always found haikus really cool because people could fit so much meaning into three short lines. I got really frustrated cos I could never finish saying what I wanted to say every time I tried, but i don't know. I suppose you just have to keep trying ;)
