Writing and Rolling: A Collection of Haikus

I wrote a haiku for each song on NCT Dream’s EP Reload. They’re not exactly based off of the meanings of the lyrics, but rather the atmosphere I feel like each song evokes. Hope you enjoy!

Ridin’

Carnival at night,

Street lights line a nearby road,

Ready for the show.

Quiet Down

Chatter fills the room,

Gossip and glasses clinking

so loud thoughts go numb.

7 Days

The waves crash against

the sand, foam rising to fall,

to repeat again.

Love Again

Sliding wrinkled notes

through the locker door, smiling

as I walk away.

Puzzle Piece

Nodding towards the seat

next to you, grabbing two cups

of coffee. I’m home.

Even after a year, this EP still is one of my favorite NCT comebacks. I had a lot of fun writing these little haikus, so stay tuned for more!
