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.

I miss you

my bed lies at the

Rhythm & Blood

Even while you're gone,
You will remain in this heart
for you are the rhythm of its beat,

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.

I helped them.

At Night
Mitch Prax Jul 2023
The sun goes down
and I take comfort in the night.
I wait for the moon to return,
and with him, the shadows,
silence and solitude.
It is at night where
I can forget about reality and
the bustle of everyday life.
It is at night where I can breathe,
to take inspiration from the darkness
and let the mind run free.

Too Far
Mitch Prax Mar 2021
Our worlds
have split in two
and you’ve gone too far
to come back.
We both can’t go back
to that world
We can’t ever call it
home again.

Diary Excerpts #74
Mitch Prax Oct 2023
Dear diary;
I do not feel-
no, I do not feel anymore.
Sometimes I can feel my heartbeat,
or a lonely butterfly in this stomach
but that pales in comparison to
when I used to feel alive,
to feel any hope at all.

Seeds & Salt

Shooting Stars
Mitch Prax Apr 2024
I wish people were
more like shooting stars
that would disappear in
a flash of an eye,
leaving no trace but
the memories of something
that was once beautiful
rather than the sun-
an unforgiving and inescapable
giant that leave us burnt
and burdened.
Mitch Prax Sep 2020
i never meant
for you to hate me,
I wanted the opposite,

I suppose it is better this way,

The Way It Was
Mitch Prax Feb 2023
Why is it so hard
to let go of those who
hurt us the most?
Is it because they were once
the source of happiness
and everything nice?
Are we still clinging onto the hopes
that it will go back to
the way it was?

One Life
Mitch Prax Jul 2023
So many places to travel,
wisdom to obtain, music to hear
books to read, poems to write,
people to meet, food to eat,
all in this one life to live.
One life is not enough.
