Chonny Jash Haiku
[Verse 1]
I have been trying
To write a haiku for you
Some things I just can't do
Maybe you're beyond
Ancient Asian poetry
Or maybe it's just me
[Refrain]
I have been trying
To get this haiku just right
All night, for you, alright
I'm through!
[Verse 2]
Maybe this poem
Was lost in the sauce we spilled
That never got refilled
I've never thought much
Of formulaic verse anyway
And rhymes are not my fort–
[Refrain]
I have been trying
To get this haiku just right
All night, for you, alright
I'm through!
[Chorus]
I'm trying not to try too hard
But you're hard to write down right
So I pen these tried attempts
At haikus for you tonight
[Verse 3]
簡単な
はずさ何手こ
ずってんだ...
Wait. I actually did it
I wrote a haiku for you!
I finally found a break, holy shit it's possible
I finally made it through
[Chorus 2]
I'vе been trying not to try my heart
I've minded my own mind
So just this oncе, just one attempt
I'll write you down just right
[Verse 4]
Kind, sweet and charming
Voluptuously endowed
Hair a darkened brown
But then suddenly
A sharp, piercing pain resounds
Vision starts to cloud
I wanted to see
The hand in which it was held
Before the knife fell
I thought you stabbed me
I swore that I smelled your smell
But I stabbed myself
[Outro]
I finally did it
Yet it hasn't helped at all
(I WROTE A HAIKU FOR YOU)
I still feel so small
I know it's too late
I know you won't hear my call
(IT'S ALL THAT I CAN DO)
And so now I fall
I had been trying to write a haiku
For so long, but now
This song, is finally through
It was all for you...
