Wait... is definitely 5 or 4 syllables?

It's 4. But don't worry...you can fix that haiku by adding an "a" between the "definitely" and the "killer." ;) Also, "smile" is two syllables, so I would change "a smile" to "smiles." ^^

Treason

Murderer! Liar!
Atheist! Red! Children throw
stones on Hell's sidewalk.

The Banquet

Laid out neatly in
a long, elegant line: food
soon ravished by teens.

Five Majors

...yet no stress. I did
not know this was at all a
possibility.

Last Day of Classes

...is actually
two classes. Shit, where is my
easy button now?

Exhausted you'll find
the ones who witnessed horror
of three test one day

To alleviate
stress upon brain, a few shouts
in a rave will do.

In moments like this
with so much recognition
I'm proud of Poland

Geralt of Rivia;
The Witcher is certainly
The best Polish brand

I had come in a
boom time, and I won't leave in
a bust time, it seems.

me, friend, for words heal where the
pity's touch fills wounds.

Which fool left the lid open?

The frog in water,
slowly boiled yet heedless,

Haikus like this will
darken a damp mood, and the
mushrooms will grow large.

All the shrooms have grown.
Leaving one to wonder if
some flowers may rise.

I tried outside rhymes today:

Your emotions squirm
As depression kills them off
You shall never win

Numbness is so weird
Oh what would you give up to
Shed a single tear

As the sickness grows
No more passion, no more laugh
Emptiness is all.

Huh, I did an inside rhyme once, and didn't notice then.

At least I'm with my
classmates...except they're on the
dancefloor...and I'm not.

Free this Journey

You had to hold it
close to let it go, but she
always walks away.
