Pseudo Haiku: Sunset

My cousin Nii Amaah wrote a Haiku and i decided to read about Haikus. I found out the format and said to myself, 'This is easy.' I began to write, and almost halfway through, i decided to read more about them. What a joke! Haikus are much harder than i initially thought. What i'd been writing was Pseudo Haiku. I'd gotten it all wrong. I decided to continue anyway. Will focus on Haikus later. Enjoy.

Thinking about you
I imagine the future.
I am impatient.

You have not arrived.
Better to watch my hair grow.
I am waiting still.

It has been a while.
Sadly, i get up to leave.
I am heartbroken.

You will not appear.
I run as fast i can
Back into my home.

Peaking through the blinds
I am silently wishing
Please come to me now.

Like a dream fulfilled
Executed by genie
I feel your embrace.

Red, orange, golden.
I am filled with happiness.
Welcome, my sunset.
