Sharmaine
Mitch Prax Feb 2020
A strong name for a
majestic sort of goddess
that I had the luck of meeting.
She sang her song-
one of which
captured my heart
and one of which
we can both
rejoice.
Mitch Prax Sep 2020
i never meant
for you to hate me,
I wanted the opposite,
in fact.
I suppose it is better this way,
for me,
at least.

Shell
Mitch Prax May 20
Some leave,
and when they do,
they take a piece of
your soul with them.
How many more have to leave
until I am nothing
but a shell?

Heart Calling
Mitch Prax Nov 2023
My heart calls to you,
it needs you more than blood.
It longs for your smile,
for your stories and
all of your being.
You are my sun,
and from this Earth I long for you.
So hear this heart calling,
and come back into my arms.

Dreams
Mitch Prax Feb 2022
I still dream about you
from time to time.
Sometimes I wish to not wake up,
sometimes they turn into nightmares.
Either way, I am sad when I wake up
to see that you are gone.

Rot & Death
Mitch Prax Feb 2023
To dig up the past,
is to raise the dead.
Let it rest,
for you will find
nothing but rot and death.
Do not relive the horrors
of a life now deceased.

Anxiety
Mitch Prax Apr 2023
Anxiety,

it racks my bones and

Stars & Solitude
Mitch Prax Jul 23
Some of us
favor our solitude
over the company of others.
We seek out silence like
the moon seeks out the night
because there are days when
our stars burn out and
running from the sun is
the only way to protect
their glorious glow.

As One
Mitch Prax Oct 2023
Do you not know
that you are mine, and I am yours?
That your dreams are mine,
and that our hearts beat as one?
We may be separated but never apart
for we are one in blood, one in soul.
Everywhere you go, I go too,
We breathe the same air.

Leaving

I am leaving-

I will recover the piece

Rhythm & Blood
Mitch Prax May 2023
Even while you're gone,
You will remain in this heart
for you are the rhythm of its beat,
the source of its love and joy.
You are inseparable to this heart
as I am to yours
for we share the same
rhythm and blood.

Seeds & Salt
Mitch Prax Feb 2022
Some people
plant seeds in your heart
and grow only the purest of things
while others
seek to cut them down

Scar Tissue
Mitch Prax Apr 2021
For muscles to grow,
they must bruise and tear
and it is the pain we must endure.
Surely, it must be true

Glass Heart
Mitch Prax Jul 2022
I lost count
of how many times
you said "forever".
How many promises
of forever have I heard?
I think I have lost count.
Promises break faster than a
glass heart and I'm tired of
picking up the pieces.

The Miracle
Mitch Prax Oct 2022
We all get a little
overwhelmed sometimes
but the memories of you and I
sustain me the most.
I submerge myself in the thought of you,
that sublime smile and
the sunflower that is your heart
and I feel better again.
Just knowing you exist,
the miracle that you are,
is more than I could ever ask for.

Diary Excerpts #65
Mitch Prax Jul 2022
Dear diary;
I think I am starting
to believe in love again.
Each crush feels like the first time
and each kiss melts this heart-
the same stone heart I thought
would never crack again.
Indeed, I think I am ready
for love to destroy me
again.

Miracle
Mitch Prax Nov 2023
There is so much joy
in the way you smile,
in those eyes and in
the way you see the world.
I could listen to you all day and
every word I will keep in my heart.
You really are a miracle
the way you bless my life with
your words, your smile
and your love.

Ravaged
Mitch Prax Mar 2023
I wanted to take care of you
as if you were the last sunflower on Earth
but winter ravaged this garden.
Despite my best efforts,
I watched your petals wither
before my helpless eyes.
It is true that I did not know
how to take care of you,
but I’ll be ****** if
I had not given you my all.
