wondering
Mikey Nov 2020
i can stare at you for hours and still wonder the same things.
how such gentle hands have held up the worlds fires.
how such loving eyes have seen the worse aray of things.
how such sensitive ears have heard the worst words around.
i wonder and wonder about you.
yet you still leave me breathless
i love you teehee

monochromatic
Mikey Nov 2020
since when was the world full of bright brilliant colors?
since when did sunsets cast shades of pink and purple in the sky?
since when did coffee dates involve strands of yellow sunlight shining through frosted windows?
since when did skatepark dates involve soft green grass and ruby red roses?
since when has this world not been monochromatic shades of grey?
because thats all i can see.
help me understand these colors of yours, i would like to experience the beauty.

scraped knees
Mikey Nov 2020
the wounds on my body are more than scraped knees and picked off scabs.
they go deep down, to the darkest of trenches.
where no one can find them but me.

my fault
Mikey Nov 2020
i want someone to wrap me in the warmth of their arms.
i want someone to hold my heart in the palms of their hands and slowly heal me.
i want someone to take a look into my mind and try to understand my pain.

but the only reason i dont have that is because of me.
its my fault no one wants me

guitars.
Mikey Nov 2020
i hear you voice in strums of my guitar.
i can feel you arms wrap around my stomach and your head press into my shoulder blades.
i can sometimes feel your hands overlapping mine, trying to take control while you giggle.
sometimes i hear you whisper forgotten words into my ears.
i love to play but it brings you back.


just come home, ill play for you..

imperfections
Mikey Nov 2020
i find that most poets write about their lovers eyes, or the way they say their name.
these have never meant much to me, not compared to you.
i could say your eyes are like the rouge oceans, or unruly storms.
i could say your voice was the calmest song to exist, or compare it to a sip of whiskey.
i could say all these things about you and they would be true.
but if im being honest, no words will ever be able to describe how perfectly imperfect you are.
Nov 2020 · 68
i love you
Mikey Nov 2020
i uttered those three words.
gently, softly spoken.
it was 3 am and the only sound that drifted through the room was the rasp in my i's.
i remember you looking at me and smiling,
only to softly whisper them back to me.
thank you..
thank you for loving me.

nights like these.
Mikey Nov 2020
its nights like these where i wished you were curled beside me,
twirling your hair and softly nodding off to sleep.
when you would gently intertwine your fingers with mine and say you loved me.
its nights like this where i wished we were staring out your bedroom window, watching the rain slowly patter off houses and onto the pavement.
i wish i could tell you how much i truly missed you, how much i long for your arms wrapped around me.
but you changed, and thats okay.
i just wish that change involved me.
i miss my bestfriend. but sadly she isnt really my bestfriend anymore

..
Mikey Nov 2020
..
i find myself doing things we once did with him.
and it makes me realize how much of an impact you caused me.
i cant get away, i cant stop thinking of things i said to you that i have now said to him.
youre stuck in me.
youre trapped within me.
and i dont want you to be but its quite a comforting feeling.
i guess i like the fact that i remember.
im not sure
you tell me

sadistic.
Mikey Nov 2020
shatter my heart again why dont you.
keep my pieces sew together in webs of lies.
break me again why dont you.
rapidly force freshly made recipes of 'love' down my throat.
destroy my everything why dont you.
keep my dreams in a little glass bottle labelled 'hopeless'.

ruin me again and again.
you're my sadistic daydream.
this is kinda bad but thats alright

theres nothing more beautiful than innocent love.

my world
Mikey Nov 2020
sometimes i watch the stars cry,
i watch the clouds turn gray,
and the sun to blue.
sometimes i watch the world run cold.
the rivers run dry,
the oceans waves level out,
the lakes stop rippling.
the world stops, and it breaks my heart.

i hate seeing you in pain.

Mikey Nov 2020

ugh
Mikey Nov 2020
ugh
my heart has sunk to the bottom of the pit, at the base of my stomach.

i had just pulled it out and it got punted back in.

i'm screaming on the inside and you cant hear,

but i'm glad you're happy and have her my dear.
ick this is bad

i write.
Mikey Oct 2020
i write,
and i write,
and i write.
yet i can never find the words to put my pain into.
i can never seem to let my emotions flow through the tip of my pen.
though i would love to tell you guys my pain through beautiful metaphors and rhymes.
my pain is fathomless,
let alone someone i can write.

weeded
Mikey Oct 2020
the flowers you have planted in my heart are slowly withering away.
i want to cling to the broken record of your voice,
and the worn out comfort of your embrace.
but as the flowers fade, so do you.
i mustn't forget you, i say.
but your flowers have turned into weeds, and i cant let them **** their way into me.
so forgive me for forgetting.
i just cant anymore

#3 forgetfulness
Mikey Oct 2020
i can hardly remember the days i spent with you.
i forgot your voice,
the ways your hands felt against mine,
the way your giggle sounded.
i forget the moments i once lived for.
im forgetting you.
or maybe this bottle ******* away the memories too.

scuffed.
Mikey Oct 2020
i scuffed up my knuckles as i crawled my way out.
the skin broke, peeling and bloodied.
my hands shook, my chest tightened, my eyes burned.
my knuckles, which had been rubbed raw, clung to your embrace.
searching for a way to heal.
and you told me to keep climbing.
yet, i still scuff my knuckles for you.
Oct 2020 · 50
your side
Mikey Oct 2020
i had a dream,
you were in my arms.
our songs playing in the background.
simply melodies mixed in with giggles and deep breaths.

when i woke up i sighed,
i'm tired if your side being so cold
come home

wicked games.
Mikey Oct 2020
you always loved card games.
slaps, war, jacks.  you name it, we played it.
but your favorite card game was called hearts.

we dealt our love, feelings, friends. we threw them all on the table.
you had me deal my heart.

and we played.

like always, since it was your favorite, you won.
taking what was dealt on the table and walking out.

i still think about this wicked game you played. and i still think about my heart. i wonder if it beats for you, i doubt it would. but sometimes in the earlier hours if the morning ill see you.

and i can feel my old heartbeat in my fingertips, slowly drifting me off to sleep. and making me think, if part of me still longs to play the game.
kinda old but i like it
Oct 2020 · 25
wished.
Mikey Oct 2020
id risk my whole life for you if thats what you wished.
id lasso the sun if you needed a light.
id capture the stars so you can be among them.
id give you my lungs so you can breath the crisp winter air.
id give my life to you if thats what you wished.
because my darling, your wish is my command

dear angel,
Mikey Oct 2020
never in a million years did i think i would meet an angel like you.
with silky hair, and devilish blue eyes.
i couldn't get enough of you.

but as time went on i realized you were a fallen angel. something deprived of the devil.
your kisses were lukewarm, your heart was frozen,
and the only thing you ever did with me was tear my heart out and rip into thousands of threads.
you were once an angel, fallen from grace.

so now, i hope you rot in the depths of hell for all of eternity.

like the devil you've become.
Oct 2020 · 46
restriction.
Mikey Oct 2020
you have my hands tied back with a thin silk rope.
you tighten this rope when you feel me slipping from you.
i even has a name.

sometimes i fade away into empty bottles of ***,
and unsmoked cigarettes.
instead of fading away into your arms.
i find this quite sad

im not...
Mikey Oct 2020
i'm not very clever.
my mind does work at accelerated speed,
yet my mind races when you say something mean to me.

i'm not very gentle.
my hands aren't weary,
yet when you raise a hand to me suddenly they go limp.

i'm not very kind.
when you ask me a question ill tell you straight up. i don't sugarcoat things,
yet when you tell me to talk to you suddenly i do.

im not a pretender.
i don't act like someone else. i'm me and thats it,
yet everyone thinks i'm fine.

im not okay.
but i say i am,
so that means it's true, right?

what about the rest of this, was it true?
Oct 2020 · 40
m a k e y o u f e e l
Mikey Oct 2020
sometimes i cant help but wonder,
if the way i say your name leaves shivers in your spine,
if the way i whisper carelessly makes you feel safe,
if the way i push your glasses back up makes you feel small,
i cant help but wonder these things because i know how these things make me feel.
but how do they make you?

Mikey Oct 2020

i never thought i would admire someone like i once admired the moon.

there came you.

#2: nostalgia
Mikey Oct 2020
that song plays.
i see you, your face as your hair blows around sticking to your lips.
i see him, his fingers tapping along to the drums on his steering wheel.  
i see her, her fingers intertwined with his, screaming the lyrics out his window.
i see them, nodding their head looking at you with the sweetest eyes. not knowing the song but enjoying the energy.
then you see me, our eyes met.
and for the first time in forever, i felt at place.
the song ends.
and so do the worn out memories of you. my beachboy.
da emotions series :)

its you.
Mikey Oct 2020

in this life i stare into them endlessly.
it's been you since the beginning of time.
and it'll be you till the end of it as well.

the boy.
Mikey Oct 2020
your arms incase me.
your lips softly plant unspoken words onto me.
your hands trace my scars, etching hearts into them.
your lungs share their breath with mine.
your eyes mend my broken daydreams.
your voice floats me off to sleep.
your heart beats for me.
and mine beats for you.
