Haiku of the Day - Spanish Inquisition Style

What do you expect?
Expecting is everything
and nothing at all

-----

They kill marriages
and even fun vacations:
warped expectations

-----

See small miracles
Be more happy when they come
They come anyway

------

They are not real, yet
they ruin many endings:
flawed expectations

------

Sometimes they are great
and sometimes dystopian
but never certain

-----

Credences and trusts
Hopes, responsibilities:
Great expectations

-----

I changed these one day
disappointments went away:
my expectations

You had me until "dystopian"! Had to look it up! (I'm an English lit major . . . )
So enjoyed each one, each haiku captured "expectation" so differently - enjoyed them all!
