#yearning poems on Hello Poetry

Bailey Witt Sep 14

I will wait for you. I will wait for you until the sun swallows me whole for staring too long while daydreaming of the life we could have together. I will wait for you until they come to collect my rotting corpse wearing the only clothes you left behind that I will never get rid of. I will wait for you until the bones in my fingertips can no longer recall what it felt like to caress your face in the night while you slept. I will wait for you until my legs are unable to move from the last place you said I love you. I will wait for you until my brain can’t remember the way you said my name and how sweetly it sounded in earliest morning after we had just woken up. I will wait for you until there is nothing left of me. And even then, when others come to visit my grave they will see a girl who loved a boy so true to her core that she would wait for him always, even after death. So I will wait for you, because you are what brings me life, even when it’s over.

So soft and so slow

Everyday i fall anew into your arms
and trace lining of your clothing.
It is white some days and none at all in nights.
Yet i trace, i trace, i trace it all over just like i paint you when i'm in need. Need.
The need of you is extreme.
Over nights i brawl in bed,
shrinking myself with the need of existence from you.
My tears weep across the floor and the water drips elegantly.
I await on your arrival.
the arrival of you in my arms sweats my windows.
I tend to draw hearts on it but you engulf me in your affection which paints vivid colours in my eyes.
I gasp for air- only to meet your lips. Our meet greets were just about one thing and it was enough for me.
Over time your touch became soft and slow.
So, so, so, soft and slow i forget that you're a fragment of my imagination. Someone on train who i thought would console me and my lonely thoughts.
Someone so magnificent i daydreamed an entire life of affection. I could write poems, sonnets, novels yet it would still not be enough to catch the spell i'm under in for someone who made me feel.
Just feel.
Feel all the hidden.

I was in one of the feels which randomly strikes and wrote it about it but these type of poems are my favourite as they come naturally to me.

My Thief

You never stole my heart

I saw you coming

And I just knew

I was meant for you

So you couldn't have stolen

What was already yours

Waves

Invisible waves crash over me
and I feel your touch linger a thousand times.
How can your absence hold such weight,
being so heavy that the salt of your ocean
pours from my eyes?

It's been a while...

little green dot

I never grew tall enough to
confidently grasp the top shelf
cereal box on the first try.
Fumbling, I’d finger its corners—
swiping mercilessly at its edges
until I could feel it fill
the curves of my desperate palm.
It gives in. Gravity assists.
Heels hit the floor.
I won again.
Back then, Persistence was my
favorite professor who always
curved the final.

I never grew mindful enough to
confidently grasp when
I should end the chase.
Writhing, I want and want—
curating the parts of myself
I think he’d like the most, but
he never turns on the light.
I collect dust. The hour hand assists.
Heels hit the floor.
I have this lesson on repeat,
and the stop button is broken.
These days, Hope has become my
favorite form of punishment
who expertly disguises herself
as wisdom.

Our Ghost

I wonder
If our ghosts
Still love each other

The Cadenza of Life ( Originally penned on Saturday, February 22nd, 2025)

The cadenza of life is its \
magistry. \
What is life? \
What is love? \
What is liberty \
without embrace \
& without freedom \
Emancipation \
is our sacral birthright. \

Mankind & womankind \
must not live life captive \
to their desires & yearnings\
This path \
would be onerous \
& burdensome to the spirit & soul that —pines for liberty. \
However, we must cleave to the light for the light is aeonic, is mystic, is sempiternal, is eternal, is kingly. \
—The Cosmo-Plexus of Empyreal Love is calling. \
(—Se’ lah)\

“ 20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not by its own will, but through the one who subjected it, on the basis of hope
21 that the creation itself will also be set free from enslavement to corruption and have the glorious freedom of the children of God.”

—Romans 8: 20, 21 (NWTSE)

your eyes.

there’s a million stars,
a million eyes,
but i would choose yours in every life,
i’d recognize them anywhere,
i’ll never forget them.
your eyes have changed though,
they’re not red everyday now,
not full of tears,
there’s a hint of happiness in them nowadays.
you used to get lost in mine haven’t you?
but you’ve found a new ones.
tell me,
do they look at you with lust?
do they only see your body?
because mine saw right through you,
they didn’t wanna see you naked,
they looked at you with love.

if you’re gonna leave then take my bones / make them into windchimes so i’ll never stop haunting yours

Junio 24 (Tagalog)

siguro, kinailangan ko
na mamatay ang aking
personang nananabik
sa pananambang ng
taksil na kagaya ****
walang paninindigan,
para makasama ko
ang nanumbalik na isip,
ang misyong itinakda,
at gisingin ang mga
may prinsipyo, mula
sa bulok **** mundo.
