Royal Flush
Max Jun 2019
To prove
Is to reach.

To defeat
Is to accomplish.

To accept,
Is to be set free.
Mind slips away in the fear of losing a bet against the past.

Clueless
Max May 2019
I have a plan,
But no clue.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Missed you bud
Max Feb 2019
I'm seeing someone often lately, someone I have not seen in a very long time.

It's me.
Finally, my life is back on the track of which it derailed many years ago.

Sender unknow.
Max Feb 2019
Such a clear sky tonight,
There were so many stars, yet one shined the brightest.

And I wondered who was it up there trying to talk and brighten my night?
Stood outside blazed by the starry night.

Homesick
Max Jul 2019
Am I homesick?

Or just not able to let the stress and emotions fade.
Oh why do I have to feel this?
Why can't I just relax?
Why is my escape a memory of it all...
Homesickness is killing me, and I never had any trouble with it before...
Any tips?

Stormy times
Max Jan 2019
You're as light as a feather,

I blow you away.
Not in my social mood

I Wish my life was a gift
Max Dec 2018
I wish my life was a gift,
because then I would not open it
And give it to someone that actually will be happy with it.

But sadly it's not,
And do I have to live with this thought.
Had the worse christmas in my life.
548 · Apr 2019
Gotta face it daily
Max Apr 2019
I find the lack of respect and intelligence in this world disturbing.
So sad

Boy on a boat
Max Sep 2019
Apparently I'm a boy on a boat,
With high waves and an angry sea.
And on the lower deck people float.
They have been taken en have been brought back.
With high waves and an angry sea.

But at least I'm your boy on a boat.
Based on a dream of someone special

Drunk on happiness
Max Feb 2019
Rather have 2 drunken angels on my shoulders
Than
2 sober demons.
:)
Max Oct 2019
As your love fills my woods,
Your heart beats like the heavy raindrops on the street.
Your hair like the movement of the leaves,
Your voice like the whispering of the wind.,
Your eyes, so gray as the calming sky.
Your smell, the reminder of my favourite moment
Your body as a strong tree, so beautiful and magnificent.

You are my autumn,

You bring the most memorable times to me.
Still love you
Max Apr 2020
I was just wondering how's everbody doing? The introverts, the extroverts and people not included.

Hope y'all doing well and doing some fun things.

Keep yourself happy, loved and creative.

Cya lads.
Just looking out for some amazing people!

Short and swifty
Max Mar 2019
Are we long overdue?

Because no more do I see any potential in you...
Get swifty

Discover.
Max May 2019
Discover everything, especially if they say you shouldn't, because new things are mostly disapproved at first.

But just don't do anything that indeed is dumb and results in death.
That's just plain stupid.
It's me back in the classroom being bored.
480 · Dec 2018
Stars so bright
Max Dec 2018
Stars so bright
That they might even
Shine some light
In
Our darkness.
Stars are the light of life.
Just a little one I thought of real quick...

Granny
Max Mar 2019
Went to my grandma for advice today.

She gave the best advice I could get. Even a therapist, doctor, officer of the law and a scientist can't beat granny's advice. She is just too kind for me and beloved by me.
Even though she's sick, when I need her help, she has the clearest mind. And for that I'm really grateful.

Personal and sorry for that. I just thought it waa word sharing such a gesture of love

What the future
Max Aug 2019
I finally know why I always have a plan-B,

It's because I'm really terrified Plan-A will fail.
Really scared of the future

Telling me the truth
Max Sep 2019
I noticed that I always say
"It will be alright"
When things are difficult.

And I never broke that promise.
Just noticed it

Memories massacre
Max Feb 2019
Memories trying to survive.

But you know what?
I don't need them no more.
People left me, and now I do the same with the memories I had with them. I leave them to rot.

Trading
Max Sep 2019
As my love for you grows

My past became less important.
Ding **** thing?
Max Mar 2019
The last thing I want my enemies to see before they die is me smiling at them.
Cruel as hell, sorry :)

Vague subconsciousness
Max Jan 2019
In my dreams
Everything is vague
The clearity will be there
When I open my eyes
And embrace this sleep-induced plague.
I have a lot of dreams lately..

Fuck up
Max Sep 2019
What you doing?

I warned you, we both know you ****** it up.

Late night thoughts
Max Apr 2019
I'm dreaming about being the king of many of my enemy's.
But I doubt someone can even be their king, because why would someone want to be responsible for their stupidity.
Cheers mate! Grab a beer and make it fun.

True Grit
Max Jun 2019
Time just gets away from us.
Had to quote this amazing sentence from the best ending of one of the best movies I've seen.

Words unsaid
Max Oct 2018
Words unsaid,
unspoken and hushed.

Words unread,
unseen and erased.

Words unfelt,
untouched and anesthetized.

Are words meant to be lost?
Why else can we lose them in so many ways?

The words left unsaid, unread and unfelt are the words you’re not going to find in
the dictionary,
But only
In the
Mind.
Newbie...

Gloaming
Max Jan 2020
A universe so black and scarce of light, Might it be that light gleams in the immortality of

Darkness?
I'm trying to return, but
1) Creativity is missing
2) I can't even get to hello poetry.com, like I can't even log in... Is there something wrong? I really find is scary because all my poems are on this site...

Hopefully somebody can tell me what's up.

Cheers!

Advise is welcome:)
Max Mar 2019
Working on a little book for my poems, good idea? And how can I spread it? Does anyone have tips?
Don't want to sound arrogant or like someone who uses this site for attention or something.  I just hoped you guys could help me out:) You can also message me privately!

Waste
Max Jan 2019
People fade,

Mostly because they're just waste
And full of envy and hate.
Just a quickie poem.

Stay
Max May 2019
Stay a little longer, just for me.
Don't leave me here, you make me stronger.

You were my buddy, my pal when nobody stood by me in the past hell.

You're going to leave, and I'm scared.
Not because you're gone, but just because you're not there.

I wished you could and stayed a little longer.
I want to make you proud.

You'll be something I carry, around my neck and near to my heart.

So if the moment may come, the moment I fear.
Can I trust you, that you're staying by my side, up there?

Don't go, let's stop the time.

I don't want to face this fear.
For my grandma, I love her.

Autopilot
Max May 2019
My mind on autopilot,
Life just goes on.

But if it were up to me.
I'd put it on pause,
Forever.
Life is useless

A drunken angel,

She, the one seeing the possiblity in every risk.

I hope my last thought is a nice one.

Shallow
Max Jan 2019
You're like a shallow puddle,
But with every word that you say
You trick me into drowning.
Was doing my math homework and thought of it.
381 · Jan 2020
Nah
Max Jan 2020
Nah
Citations and quotes,
All this writing I loathe.
Those ****** sources and notations,
Those boring words of personal innovations,
Writers, scientists, philosophers and other titles.
**** people being smart

Hope is what keeps me alive throughout my stint in life. Sheer hope. Hope and the presence of loved ones
A tribute to shawshank

I'm melting
Max Mar 2019
Feel like the world is frozen, and I'm too hot for the ice to stand on and therefore I'm melting my way to the core of it all.
365 · May 2019
Shattered words?
Max May 2019
I'm scared
But by what
I don't know.

My mind shattered by the fear of the common,
And attracted by you.
If somebody could define this poem, that would be great.

Max Aug 2019
What's a world without hatred,

What's a world without love?
It's both needed to create the happiness and peaks of life

I wan't to move to heaven
Max May 2019
I want to be with you,

Even though you're in heaven.
The tempation of joining you is only getting bigger.
I miss you so much.

De onbewezenheid
Max May 2019
Het leven is onbewezen
Niemand voelt het aan
We weten het, maar wanneer zal jij gaan
Het leven is onbewezen

De bevraging van ons bestaan
Leven we door, als onze taak is gedaan?
Of sluit ons lichaam en zullen we vergaan?
Het leven is onbewezen.
Moest wat schrijven, dus deed ik dat.
342 · Nov 2019
I should go
Max Nov 2019
I'm
Slowly walking to the gates of white,
May it be soon, may it be tonight.
May it end my problems,
May it end my fight.

The unknown
Max Aug 2019
Sleepless nights,

The future haunts me
I actually have never thought further than this...
341 · Oct 2019
I feel dumb
Max Oct 2019
Altough we say
That we are smart,
We are actually dumb,
And we always will be.

But how beautiful is it, that we can learn our whole life long?
It's something to accept and eventually helps you becoming an even better you.
