Deadly love
Michael Smit Jan 2019
I was trying to learn
how to make my love turn
But I could only burn
                                               The chemicals were explosive
                                                    and my love remained corrosive

Deadly love was what I was to give
In broken love my life I live

My fae were demons living inside me
My thoughts were feelings that only I see
I tried to **** them but how could I be
The destroyer of me
the one inside me

Coversational mind
Michael Smit Dec 2018
My actions my power
My thoughts my drive
But it's not nearly as simple
I have to synchronize

There's mirror images
And a ton of lies
Also the ones we call savages
and the endless skies

It's the language of superior
Whilst I only speak human
I'm faced with the burning inferior
while I act like I know what I'm doing

I grab my gasoline
and I call it hope
I fill me up
and burp a bubble soap

Like the usual consumer
I pleasure in a little humor
But when the lights go out and I'm alone
I overthink and search for home

hearts art
Michael Smit Nov 2018
Take that broken heart
turn it into art
They said
But where do I start
When it all just fell apart

How do I translate broken
When there is nothing left unspoken
Can't you see it bleed
It's broken open

If I scream
will it bring harmony
Will they see
I lost my armory
I stare at you artlessly
I'm still me
but there is a piece
I can never be
the piece you failed to see
the piece now lost in me  

What I didn't know
What I forgot to reap and sow
in the broken
You get the perfect flow
a dark beautiful glow

If crazy
Michael Smit Nov 2018
If crazy was a place
Maybe he had a face
One no one could erase
One they had to face
In this crazy place

If crazy was alive
Will he try to strive
Will he shine and survive
If he falls
will he revive  

If crazy was a dream
How would it seem
Serenity and grace
Illuminate the place
Or terror of error
The often bearer
The rarer mirror
But never clearer

When to light your candle
Michael Smit Nov 2018
Piece by piece
I pick up the pieces
What is left
and what is lost to theft
I gather it all and build a new heart
Even though everything is not there
It doesn't fall apart

I guess it's because I'm used to it
I don't see the use in proving I'm fit
I know what I can handle
And I know when to light my candle
If I should burn or simply shine
The choice is mine

Faith
Michael Smit Jan 2019
Faith in the unknown
Countless times my minds been blown
This world is not what I wished to have known
And true colours started to show

But I couldn't give up yet
Human nature still had some records to set
Will it **** them off? I bet
But I'd rather help instead

Be the better me
reflect and see
God made me free
Now let's make some ripples in the sea

Unforeseen enemy
Michael Smit Dec 2018
How do you unthink something
How do you take back what hasn't been said
I can't unplant the seed once it's been planted
I cannot deny what I never wanted
So now I overthink
and I'm left haunted

They say there's a hidden enemy within you
One that will be your worst
It matured before I knew
While I was still in thirst

What if it doesn't what to be found
How do I come around
What if he's stronger and crowned
I hear a sound and hit the ground
It's to late to turn around

For a moment I'm pinned down
But by who? I am in a ghost town
I forgot to write down
And that makes a touchdown
By a inside clown
I lost my crown and I'm down

I had no clue
But I will come through
I will find what they call you
and try to renew

Untitled
Michael Smit Nov 2018
I think too big
and fly too high
I have a thought quick
but it is too big
I flew too high
and got burned at the entrance of the sky

Find your peace-Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
When they tear at you piece by piece
It's best to stand and find your peace
Even though your heart began to freeze
The last power you have to squeeze

Find your power
Or they'll devour
You within a hour
Let's make them sour

In the end we fight our battle
Don't let your world rattle
You're not the only one with scars
Look to the stars
There are millions of us
Broken and tired
Simply fired
We are wired
To tired  

So do your best
Forget the rest
Build your nest
And get some rest

Because tomorrow is another round
The power you found
To stick around
To stand your ground
They'll hear your sound

Gypsy dance
Michael Smit Dec 2018
Staying when I shouldn't
Going when I should
My armour is cracked
But fight I know I would

Wouldn't it be easier If we just could
leave it all behind and go live in the wood
If I could I would
Standing where no one stood
alone in the wood

They can't reach me here
and I am lifted of fear
I've held them far to near
and I am ready for the cure

So I do my gypsy dance
and take my final stance
In lamination of the moon
my power will be here soon

Change
Michael Smit Nov 2018
Some things I have to do
and some things I don't
Things I should
And things I won't

I don't like change
but it's in range
it seems strange
because it only leaves disarrange
So I try to morph through the change

It's a good thing we're mutable
And we don't cling to the suitable
Even though I lack beautiful
I change as usual

So don't get used to it
get down and sit
and try to admit
that it feels like you're losing it
Here comes change
Split submit.

Mother and Father
Michael Smit Nov 2018
I write this with a heavy heart
Because it feels like I'm falling apart

They keep fighting
and I don't know with who I should be deciding
I want to go in hiding
But running from it is as good as lying

I love them both
and I am woven from their clothe
But they keep hurting each other
and I am froched to look at another
I love you father and mother
So please don't hurt each other

They had the perfect love
but even that didn't seem enough
I guess I'm still lucky to have you
to know the love between me and you remain true
Even if you leave me blue
I'll always think of you
143 · Oct 2018
Backspace-Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
I push backspace
And my feelings start to erase
I get taken to a new place
Where I can't see your face

I became more effervescent
But I still missed your scent
No room for terror or error
A survivor to the exterior

But a feeling like this
How could I resist ?
Face to fist

Stranger to lover
Lover to enemy
I lay here broken
With you my remedy

So I push backspace once more
And my feelings struggle to erase
I hope for a new place
But I still see your face
142 · Nov 2018
Enchanted
Michael Smit Nov 2018
When your mind is constantly enchanted
And your being has demanded
For you to respond
You have to make them fond

So I write a rhyme here and there
But how am I to prepare
Let them in your mind if you dare
Find your motive and see if they care

I find my magic
But it's a bit tragic
I can fill you with sarrow
And make you think of tomorrow
139 · Jan 2019
Crazy like me
Michael Smit Jan 2019
You are crazy like me
insanely free
we don't care what's to be
as long as it's you and me

You colonized my mind
and here I thought you I'd never find
love and life has left me blind
then came you and opened my eyes wide

You where there when the walls caved in
I never thought you and I would begin
You made me want to sin
But instead you I'd win
138 · Dec 2018
Godless times
Michael Smit Dec 2018
The color of my skin doesn't defy me
Neither does my sexuality
I do not lack morality
While some still seek for their sanity
In a world that knows no bounds for insanity

It's terrible to think of how many died
Just because they lied
They didn't know right from wrong
And thought they were being strong
I hope it haunts them life-long
And when they wake
they hear this terrible song

In these Godless times
In a world filled with  countless crimes
All we can do is face these climbs
and hope for the end result
to be beautiful rhymes

My suicide
Michael Smit Nov 2018
When you come at your lowest
And have nowhere left to go
When life's at it's slowest
And you simply can't say no

You take the razor
And make the first one deep
Your body feels the tazor
You fall down and weep

One cut is not enough
So you make some more
I don't want to see their face
When they walk through the door

How do I explain that I want to die
How do I tell them that my happiness was a lie
They'll get teary-eyed and ask why
Forching me to stop and simply cry

The blood makes a mess
And you're still here
You take the poison and shallow
And say bye to what you held dear

With the feelings that I used to hide
I prepare my suicide
135 · Oct 2018
Fragile heart
Michael Smit Oct 2018
The thing about a fragile heart
You never know when it will fall apart
It may be strong and smart
But there's always a bigger part
The part of art

Your intentions are pure and true
You genuinely care
But have you thought this through
Will you dare

Declare your heart
or fall apart

Don't let them too near
You felt nowhere
wishing to be elsewhere
Prepare to repair
123 · Nov 2018
Plain and simple
Michael Smit Nov 2018
If you keep it simple
And keep your heart detached
You prevent it's *******
Emotions surpassed
122 · Oct 2018
Endurance-Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
I look for reassurance
Preparing for the endurance
I take my place
This is a race

I start to pick up the pace
Only the best for first place
I have yo keep moving
No time for losing
This was your choosing

It's a race against time
The spot yours or mine
Whoever is the best
Makes it to the rest
And we'll continue the test

Hold on to your endurance
The little reassurance
You'll win the race
You'll make first place
116 · Oct 2018
Broken star-Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
I kept falling
My heart calling
No more stalling
My heart kept calling

No way to erase
No one to take his place
I though my heart was safe
Time to erase
He left a empty space

I needed you
You had no clue
What I would do just for you
Ever blue

You were my safe haven
No more the given
My hearts luminescence
My souls evanescence
Taken away
Life sentenced

Now I'm in the dark
Falling apart
Where's the spark
That held us to part
Now I'm at the start
It fell apart

Stitch it together
Won't hold forever
But till we're together
I'll keep it together

You're a broken star
You went to far
You got a scar
Now you're in a bar
Head and heart about to spar
The life of a broken star
113 · Oct 2018
Soul of the ocean-Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
In peace I stare
While the oceans collide
With the fishes the hide
Remarkable beauty inside
With their arms wide
I fall inside

I sink with time
A different rhyme
Don't go too fast
I watch it pass
I breathe in class

The currents take me away
Leaving my soul astray
While they float to
I shallow the blue
Currents in hue

Soul of the ocean
We swim in perfect notion
In tune with motion
Motion of the ocean

In the depth our hearts lie
Our feet tied
Our souls wide
We swim inside

To the soul of the ocean
You don't need potions
You're in perfect motion
Motion of the ocean
109 · Nov 2018
Pay
Michael Smit Nov 2018
Pay
We pay to life
We pay to die
We even pay to ask why

We pay for good quality
and for quantity
We pay for feeling
and for dreaming

We pay for caring
for simply daring
We pay for a good placing
in the racing

There are some things you don't have to pay for
But I don't recommend looking for them at the store
Things like love and breathing
Things like leaving meaning

Give kindness without asking any in return
In return you won't burn
A human weakness money
Makes them think funny

They **** each other for the gold
Leaving only a horrid story told
Say something and you are sold
Replace their humanity with a chunk of gold
108 · Oct 2018
May we meet again- Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
In light we are born
In darkness we return
Our souls leaving
Our families weeping
You're body's eternal sleeping

Never though there could be an ending
To such a beautiful beginning

You left us here
In total despair
Nothing could repair
Our hearts you held dear
You're souls ascension we fear
I should have held you near
No more fear

But you're happy now
Up in the clouds
You can look around
In the end happiness is bound
Heaven you found
While we're here on the ground
You made us very proud

I still want to scream and shout
We're here without
The soul that made our hearts pound
But it's okay
Because heaven you found
Happiness finally bound

Your soul finally got out
To the promised land
Our savior with you hand-in-hand
Even we do not quite understand
We can't fall into depression and get sad
Because someday we will meet again
May we meet again

With your mind put to ease
May your soul rest in peace

Contradiction
Michael Smit Nov 2018
They say you're too hot
They say you're too cold
They do what their told
While I'll be bold

My minds dressed in blue
And theirs in red
They remember what's said
While I forget

Love and hate
we contemplate
Fear and drive
we survive

Try to distract
And keep in tact
You have to let your flow blow
Don't say Oh no
Choose between adore and bore
And let your glimmer shimmer

If you grow
you glow
Time will show
Now you know
What I don't know
100 · Oct 2018
Addiction
Michael Smit Oct 2018
I don't even have to identify the word
Addiction is a hateful sword
You slowly drift toward
Something you can't afford

The problem is ignored
Your mind is on board
There is no switch board
You became a warlord

The chances to be restored
The thinning of your power cord
You lose your souls harsichord
Leave your potential unexplored

Addiction becomes your destruction
Your very reduction
Induction then destruction
Alien abduction

You leave the people that love you broken
There are no please unspoken
How do you tend to the heartbroken
When their hearts are already frozen
Woven with explosion
Emotion won't reopen

Now your choking
You have to be joking
I knew i would be losing
The one my heart was choosing
100 · Nov 2018
Multi
Michael Smit Nov 2018
My mind is a multidimensional space
My choices multidirectional
I need my multidisciplinary
My body being multicellular

We life in a multiform world
Each of us multilayered
Our lives multilevelled
Some choose to become multigravida
Some choose multimedia
Some become multimillionaires

It's all multi phrases
All while being multipartite

My protection- Ms
Michael Smit Oct 2018
I look at my reflection
The sting of rejection
I let down
My protection

I let them in
They see my sin
They see my burning
How I was turning

Caring became scaring
They started boring and snoring till morning
Exploring ignoring
Fleeing feeling
Leaving meaning

They held their vanity
While I lost my sanity
Losing reality
I needed protections gravity

I found my beat
Brought the heat
My heart feat
Repeat

Don't let them near your body
The king you have to embody
I became weary
Making me a fiery
A deadly enemy
A heavenly symphony

Put on your protection
Fight their expectation
An explosion
Of ocean
87 · Nov 2018
My person
Michael Smit Nov 2018
I was a lost soul, I found you and we got lost together
I thought you, you thought me
We were happy
Isn't it funny
You and me

Forever thankful
Even grateful
He gave me a golden key
A beautiful pearl
Am I the only to see

She shifts like a thousand seas
Gracefully at peace
While stunning indeed
Her I need
To complete my sanctuary
Written for my person
85 · Nov 2018
Unspoken
Michael Smit Nov 2018
It's the words left unspoken
that leaves your mind a woken
that keeps your heart broken
Love unopened

Rather act with devotion
Show your emotion
Say what you feel
and let it heal
Reopen your seal
83 · Nov 2018
Just a bit of believe
Michael Smit Nov 2018
When there's nothing left to say
And they chose their path
Will you give away
Will you turn to wrath

Will you fall, and say that you're okay
Or will you sway like a fairy of a new day
Will you be the better man
And say that you can
Or will you tear yourself apart
Forgetting about God's plan

If they leave
Let them go
If they come back
You will know

He doesn't do anything without meaning
That you know
So drop the feeling you're feeling
And let go

Let yourself fly
As high as you may
Don't lose your try
Ignore what they say

You can do anything
If you allow yourself
You can try everything
He looked at himself
82 · Oct 2018
The one that got away
Michael Smit Oct 2018
Have you ever heard a story told
One the mind seems to hold
It's a bit old
But worth the told

Her eyes were glistening
My heart was listening
My brain ignoring
I didn't know of the mourning

We slowly start healing
Our hearts beating
My logic falling
Losing a calling
She's now for the taking
And my heart was breaking

The one that got away
I couldn't make her stay
But maybe someday
Love will find a way
And make her stay
74 · Nov 2018
Stay up late
Michael Smit Nov 2018
Sometimes I stay up late
Contemplating about life
Thinking of my fate
Of what I had to sacrifice

I dream of love lost and gained
of the feelings I've restrained
I think of what's past and to come
if not all , a hefty sum

I pass each and every banner
gaining some table manner
I get out my planner
and fall in planner manner

In the late my minds awake
no time to wait
If I do I forsake
no room left for mistake
71 · Oct 2018
Random thoughts
Michael Smit Oct 2018
I wonder if they see me
Past the face I claim to be
I wonder if they know me
And if they can maybe show me

Maybe they see the obscene thoughts
And try break the countless locks
Try to climb the mammoth mountain
To find only an empty fountain

I surround myself with change
Always keeping it strange
Makes it hard to figure out
I would know
I'm still in doubt

— The End —
