Greetings and salutations, Shipper Nation! I'm Amy, your friendly neighborhood monkey ninja.

Haiku- simple, elegant, and yet a rigid form. Wikipedia gives way more detail than I intend to. You should know the basic drill- 3 lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables. Your obvious theme is Kara and/or Lee. 1, 2, 3, GO!

Example:

Adrift in the black
Air escaping in a rush
He lets himself go

Tastes like ambrosia
Lips full and lush, desire sparks
Slowly curving smile

Sun, bright in his eyes
Dirt and fresh air in his nose
Bright shiny future?

She feels victory
The blue-green planet below
Wait 'til Lee sees this

Excuse me while I go cry in a corner now.

An Affair in 3 Acts

This may be cheating, but I'm a cheater. :)
And besides, I think they would word as stand alones too, so it counts. Haha.

Her skin burns for him
His touch lingers from the night
As she says 'I Do.'

Fists hurt like kisses
Pain and love yelled in the night
Again, they see stars.

Secrets. Touches. Guilt.
Rings and ink speak things unsaid.
His skin burns for her.

Achy, raw and painful. Just the way I like it. :)

Trusting herself is
Always harder than trusting
Him. It’s a problem.

When the voices in
Your head tell you to die, say:
I’ve got other plans.

How have we gone this
Long without working things out?
I know, right? It’s weird.

Sometimes in my life
I make bad choices it's true
Not today. You're here

I lie here waiting
For you to stop me running
Away from our truth

More later. Love this topic!

Pretty much a senseless jumble of Lee/Kara quotes. Supposed to be somewhat linear in time line, but only kinda and I may have fudged a couple syllables, but I only feel slightly guilty about it. :)

I thought you were dead
Good Hunting is what you say
They were born to fly

Fight 'em til we can't
All this has happened before
They were taught to fight

Am I what you want?
The rest isn't worst a damn
They were made to love

Where are we going?
Maybe I want it upset
They were happy once

Where does that leave us?
Looks like it's just you and me
So say we all

Ships pass in the night
Nice to meet you, Lee Adama
Likewise, Kara Thrace

Destiny complete
So, what do you hear Starbuck?
Nothing but the rain

Thirty-three minutes
Barely enough time to pray
Gods, don't let him die

There's no place like home
Unless an evil robot
Has built one for you

Ouch.

As Xander once said, "I'm going to listen to country music now. The music of pain."

Apologies for the dark and depressing:

Time is endlessness
Stretching out before her now
It is her destiny

Time is finite now
Life nothing without her here
His gun is cold. Heavy.
