Haikus? My first I've ever written, so please give feedback!?

These are the first haikus I've ever written, and I need to know how they are to everyone else. I had to write them for my 8th grade English class. Please tell the truth! They are haikus about various things.

Insomnia:

Sleep evades me,

insomnia takes over.

Yet, I dream of you

---

Dieing:

Too overwhelming.

The pain takes over now.

Say goodbye, last chance.

---

Homeless:

Beg and plead for more,

their stomachs vast emptiness.

Left without a home.

---

Rose:

Beautiful crimson,

it’s like my heart. It has thorns

and it’s withering.

----------

Beach:

Sunsets like fire,

powder sand between your toes,

palm trees in the breeze.

Waves crashing on the

shores, the sound puts me to sleep.

Utterly gorgeous.

---

Backstabbing:

See pain in her eyes,

enjoy it while you can.

You inflicted it.

-------

Fantasy Land:

You and I only,

where you whisper lovely words,

where you love me

------

Take me Away:

Take me away from

this lonely place I

should be calling home

----------

PLEASE PLEASE be completely truthful and give me any suggestions on getting better?

Update:

And please tell me which ones are your favorite!

    In your second line in "Dieing", it's only six syllables when there are supposed to be seven.
