Help these broken hands
Heal this broken, bleeding heart
And you will love me

Someone who loves you? Like a boyfriend maybe? :P I'm not that good at interpretation lol...

Forever Alone
Perfect to describe my life
Lonliness, I weep.

I will never find a myself a girlfriend... ;P

Haha, no! It was just a very romantic, storyesque haiku I thought up. :D

Don't say that! You never know with those kinds of things! :D As they say, everything in life is just around the corner.

Requiem for a Dream

Requiem for the lost
Let us sing loud and bold now
We are unafraid

I hate this life now
its shadows come to get me
and I try to run

I'm overpowered
this is nothing I can kill
I must fall, sleep, die

*In memory of one of my regulars in Haiku Land who doesn't come anymore.

I wrote one for school. My teacher didn't accept it. We were supposed to write a poem about vikings for social studies. Mine went like this:

Vikings are real tough.
Leif Erikson sailed the seas.
Vikings found much land.

So then my small group voted that I should say it for the whole class.

walking the lone road
hollow eyes watch them running
blood soaked endlessness

First of all, welcome to Haiku Land, Arceus12! Thank you for posting your haiku here. As a haiku enthusiast, I'm going to critique your haiku and you see what you think.
I would try rewriting the haiku like this:

[b]One can use a pen,
since a pencil is useless.
Therefore, I use pens.[/]

I changed your first line 'you' to 'one' because that way the perspective doesn't change. I added a comma at the end to sort of join it to the second sentence. I changed 'but' to 'since' because you're saying one can use pens and pencils are useless. One of the ways to join those two ideas together and make sense would be to use a word like 'since'. You use 'but' when you're trying to compare characteristics of a single thing. Exemplis gratis: He's a great guy but he can be annoying sometimes.
I added a period at the end of the second sentence because it seems to end there.
I also changed the last line so that it wouldn't sound so repetitive. I hope this helps!
