I've no idea
what is going on in here.
What's this all about?
Fail at haiku. =(
Who sleeps shall awake, greeting the shadows from the sun
Who sleeps shall awake, looking through the window of our lives
Waiting for the moment to arrive...
Show us the silence in the rise,
So that we may someday understand...

Depends on pronunciation, I guess, I counted 5-7-5 syllables.

If you pronounce I've as "I've" and not "I Have", it is 5-7-5.

Boing.

I see what you're getting at, but around here "Going" is two syllables, even if the second one is barely emphasized. And before you say anything, I'm too lazy to put this post into haiku...

I've heard some people pronounce it in ways that might be considered two syllables. I've also heard it pronounced with an "r" in there. I've heard a lot of different ways of speaking.
