I self-destruct when
your words are lost from my life
dread pervades this void
dread pervades this void
as my ego begs for hope
life devastates me
life devastates me
when your eyes embrace with mine
own these thoughts hunger
own these thoughts hunger
and thirst to demolish walls
for identities

Sometimes it’s quick, but lately I’ve been taking more time with the less humorous ones. Some have taken a couple of hours or more to get it to where I am satisfied enough with it. I have the message in my head, just making it fit into the structure in a nice smooth way is the challenge.

This is amazing! Is there any name to this particular poetry form?

I made the form up so I call it a
Shi Rensa Haiku.
With chain (Rensa) being the adjective closest to the noun (Haiku) because it is the primary descriptive of the phrase. (Yeah, I looked into Japanese sentence structure.)
Shi=Four
Rensa=Chain, connection
Haiku=Poem
