Scars Left Behind

Behind friendly smile and bright eyes are scars
left by raw pain and sorrow
Heart broken when love died

Ok the education continues. I saw the similarity between this and the haiku and had to look up the form. I like this poem alot, it's sad and powerful, probably my favorite type of poem as far as effect. I have a question if I may ask, is the form like the haiku, I mean I understand the syllables, but are the three lines like the haiku? I will do more research, but someone with personal experience is better? I am considering wandering away from my sonnets and couplets, trying some new things.
