    let go in the darkness
    and
    fall into the light

    I really like the simplicity of your poetry.
    And glad to see you posting, M4ngo!

    The Hope Theory

    In a grand-stillness uncertainty slips
    inspiring the moment and losing its grip—
    leaving shadows in a bucket of sun
    collapsing my thoughts left undone

    Recipe the Feeling

    I agree,
    there is something
    particularly special
    —about you
    how else
    could you replicate
    the same feeling
    I get
    when craving
    ice cream
    in the
    middle
    of the night
    when I switch
    on the light
    to the kitchen
    and I’m greeted
    by the biggest
    cockroach
    I've ever seen

    Fun little poem... enjoyed. Perhaps "replicate" as a noun: "a tone one or more octaves above or below the given tone."

    who am I but a stitch in time
    what if I were to bare my soul
    would you see me origami

    The Curtain

    silver light
    unfolds at night
    unbracing
    as you fall—
    stealing away the curtain
    your disguise
    now dripping shade

    Lovely, just lovely. Some beautiful imagery and turn of phrase here. Your haikus are delightful snippets of depth.

    In particular like sad leaves and Write my Name in Solitude

    Keep at it. It's very pleasing to absorb.

    Sunlight Drapes

    beyond the edge
    of revelations—
    sunlight drapes
    linger on
