Every Day Poems

2023-07-06 02:57:11 When did I allow you to know me? Not at all—not even a bit. You only know me from hundreds of kilometers away. You see me laughing when in reality, I'm fixing my heart that's already full of holes.

What else can I ask for?

2023-07-05 22:43:10 As your ever-loving mother
I gift you the wings,
Lack of which, you ponder over
The reason for your jinx.

Spread your wings soon
And fly high in the breeze,
To reach the moon, whose room
Will be mine in your dreams.

2023-07-05 18:38:14 It's very light, like a feather. As if I was devoid and stripped bare of smiles and weapons, of shades and scars.

Hidden under a white mask, in a blank black; surfaces no pain, no shame, no tears, no teeth.

Where are my stories, my papers, my words? Not even my lies remain…

My walls, my logs, my broken compass, weren't they here?

When did the path twist away?

Where am I?

What… am I?

2023-07-05 14:36:07 Where are you? I await you,
Eagerly await you to come,
So I can tell you to leave,
And how much I desire for you to go away.

How necessary it is to never return
To this house where I welcomed you,
Where I loved and honoured you,
And where there's no longer room for you.

No room for your whines or tears,
No room for your whims,
No room for your madness,
My asylum no longer has space for you.

Where are you? I await you,
So I can stand before you and say:
Welcome, now go away forever. Open / Comment

2023-07-05 12:29:06 Drop by drop,
My blood seeps,
Turning the snow red.

Bit by bit,
It's shattering inside,
Crushing my heart to pieces.

Piece by piece,
I gave you all of me,
Leaving me with nothing but emptiness inside.

_

Why aren't these bare bones visible to you?
Haven't I given enough?

2023-07-05 10:22:06 *”The way I see the world”*

In hues of gold and azure skies,
The world unfolds before my eyes.
A tapestry of wonders grand,
In every grain of sea and sand.

Mountains rise with steadfast might,
Kissing heavens with snowy white.
Rivers dance in joyful streams,
Reflecting sunlight’s golden gleams.

Through forests lush, enchanting green,
Where secrets whispered, yet unseen.
Creatures roam with graceful ease,
Embracing life’s harmonious breeze.

In cities bustling, vibrant and bright,
A symphony of souls takes flight.
Diverse voices, cultures entwine,
Celebrating life’s grand design.

The way I see this precious Earth,
Is filled with beauty, joy, and mirth.
Each moment holds a tale untold,
A masterpiece, forever unfold.

So let us cherish, protect with care,
The gift we’ve been entrusted to share.
For in the way we see the world,
Lies the power to shape a future unfurled.

May love and beauty guide our way,
As we embrace each new-born day.
And through our eyes, let the world be seen,
In all its glory, forever serene. Open / Comment

2023-07-05 08:15:05 Crush my heart,
after you tore it apart.

And if it still beats for you,
do what you wish for,
it was never mine
to possess anyway.

2023-07-05 06:08:05 Mind’s vow:

They told me, that if I were to climb to the top of this shit-hole, then I’ll have to hide my heart. But I’ve learned—those who hide their heart might eventually lose sight of it.

No more. I will not let it happen to me anymore. I will not let them take her away from me… ever, again.

Heart’s worry:

He held me tight, against his chest—like I were the last thing he had in world.

But I could see, around him, the thorns and mires closing in, threatening to imprison and suffocate him. This was the price he had to pay, for keeping me.

Was he really going to let them, closing in, hurting him and draining him out of blood? He is holding me this dearly, this… bravely.

All for the sake of keeping me alive.

Isn’t there anything I can do for him? If only I were stronger… stronger, so I could lend him my strength…
