NOT about Lara Croft ;)

Archeologist
Always searching for treasure
She raided my heart

This is haiku isn't it Fledermaus. Quite difficult to write as i discovered. I'm not a great lover of it, but you have done this well.

the ideal haiku... one simple, yet juicy thought. No broken lines, either, like mine always have!

Thanks Toad. 
Probably the result of the last girl I had a crush on being sort of an archeologist, but somehow it seems the Lara Croft-factor does have its charm :grin

Did she find some gold 
I know it's there inside you 
But did she find it?

Thanks Audrie. 
 
Unfortunately 
It will remain courtly love 
She rejected me

Your heart's a tomb? 
 
Never mind Fledermaus - there's plenty more fish in the sea.

Thanks Phil. 
LOL. Hadn't thought of it that way. Well, Tomb Raider seemed a suitable title until you came up with that comment :p 
You're right about the fish, but I'm very picky about which fish to choose.
HI Fledermaus

A good Haiku. Sometimes the fewer words you use, the more meaning you get across.  
 
As an archeologist, you will know that there are many more finds available.

Thanks Jean. I'm not an archeologist, she is :grin
