Too much
maristella Nov 2020
I've always wanted to be the smartest person
yet it seems they have grown tired of this world.

they've seen the world and what it's done to them,
to the point, they hate life and alienate themselves.

they seem to not care anymore,
and if only I could reach the smartest person.

maybe I could let them see,
what their brightness has dimmed.

Love
maristella Sep 2020
love makes you forget what's important
it's an irrational feeling
making lose track of yourself
and only think of him.

so i dont want love
im not combortable with becoming a person of love.

What I Know
maristella Aug 2020
Writing a poem is "easy"
       But
          My brain is loud
              So,
                 My heart covers her ears
                    And closes her eye.
Writes whatever but ends up in the
                                 draft.

her name
maristella Aug 2020
Star of the sea,
even in the midst of darkness her shine will not be fazed.
she'll glow brightest,
the one to bring light to the
place.

yours truly,
maristella.

My Cairo,
maristella Jul 2020
We've both crossed the line
let go of each other's hand.
Parted ways on the other side,
only I looked back, but you were gone.

Another try wouldn't hurt
all we needed was each other's comfort.
But in the middle you built a tower,
only you knew I was never a climber.

I love you Cairo, but I have to say goodbye
I can no longer love someone, who I can't reach in the sky.
One day when we meet,
I'll be the Emi you loved, but now just a passerby.

— The End —
