I want to say...
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
I want to say
'I love you'
but I'm afraid
of what you'll think.
Will you
just sit there
and look at me
and blink?
Will you smile
and hug me
and tell that
you love me too.
What you'll think,
I don't know.
But I love you,
and that's something  
that I think
you should know.
Unsure of how to say it...

First
Masha Yurkevich Apr 2019
To be
old and wise,
you must first be
young and stupid.
Unfortunately...

Where she will remain
Masha Yurkevich May 2019
My vision starts to blur;
my words start to slur.

The world around me starts to go at a snails' pace,
and I forget where I am,
this country, city, or place.

The words you're saying make no sense to me.
Strange feelings flood me, such as happy, anxious, and very angry.

I'm not sure what's going on,
all I can tell is that I want my mom.

I'm yelling,
                 screaming,
                          shouting

her name.

Suddenly she's next to me,
and I know that's where she will remain.
P.S. This was just a bad dream...

Incredible
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
You
are
incredible;
don't forget that.
You
are yourself,
and no one else
can beat
that.

Seasons of Love
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
Love knows no seasons.
Love knows no time.
Love can blossom at anytime.
219 · Feb 2019
Of you
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
When I see you,
my heart skips a beat.

When I hear you,
I'm all ears.

When I speak with you,
I stutter a bit
and lose my words.

When I see you smile,
I smile back from ear to ear.

When I shake your hand,
I want to hold
it forever.

When I think of you,
I can't stop.

When I dream of you,
I am left
speechless...
A special someone...
217 · Mar 2019
Only for us
Masha Yurkevich Mar 2019
The pretty
flowers.
The people and crowds.
The hours
spent.
All to only bring us
to another end.
The tears
lost.
The money and cost.
The tissues
used.
None will ever heal this wound.
It's only
for us.
To you it is
worthless.
With every second,
your body only gets colder.
But for us,
it's only a sense of
closure.
Because up there, you are enjoying yourself with God. While down here, we're still mourning and crying.

Growing Old
Masha Yurkevich May 2020


If you're
afraid
of growing old,

just remember,

some people never
had
the chance to
grow old.




I decided to go for something a little more serious today...

Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
We are

that
somebody

better.

Salt
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
Let us
be the salt
in life.
To add
meaning
and
taste
to those around us.
I guess you could also say let us be the sugar to add sweetness to those around us, but I chose salt. My lunch inspired me...

Waste of Time
Masha Yurkevich Apr 2019
Ugh

A waste of time.

again

I gave you all I ever had
in hopes
to gain your love.

But all you did was
steal my heart

and leave me feeling
worthless.
It's fine. I knew you weren't the one.
I'll keep looking...

Thoughts of You
Masha Yurkevich May 2019

The thoughts of


YOU


fill my mind.


Keeping me away
work
that I've been assigned.


Not like it's a bad thing thinking about you, but now it's become daydreaming.

Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
MNM
My brothers and I have a nickname.
MNM; that's what we became.
Masha, Nik, Mike,

Its funny but true.
Haha. Yeah, funny. MNM, Masha, Nik, Mike. Its pretty cool how it even goes in order in age.

Stop for a while
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
When I look
at your
smile,
I think that the world
should stop
and look
for a while.
To see the smile that
I am seeing.
To feel the feeling that
I'm feeling.
Your smile
is not
ordinary
your smile is
extraordinary.

Friend Poem #1
Masha Yurkevich Nov 2019


Every time you help me out,
I just wanna get on top of the world and shout:
Thank you God for this great friend!
And may this great friendship
never end.


I'm planning to make more...

Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
Boys

Girls

But watch out for
yourself
so you don't

fool.
Boy or girl, anyone can become a fool. Don't let that be you.

Black Hole
Masha Yurkevich Apr 2019
I
was
a

You drew me in,
my heart and soul.
But you could not love,
for that part was fake.
And all you did
was make my
heart

Without
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
Without love,
this world would always hate.
Without light,
this world would always be dark.
Without kindness,
this world would always be mean.
Without happiness,
this world would always be sad.
Without beauty,
this world would always be ugly
Without hope,
this world would always be hopeless.
Without peace,
this world would always fight.
Let us be
the good of this world;
the light,
the peace,
the hope,
the beauty,
the love,
the kindness,
and the happiness.
Let's change this world for the better,
starting with us.
And so that one by one,
this world would be full of greatness.

Christmas Spirit
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
Not
always on
Christmas do you
need snow. Not always on
Christmas do you need lights.
Not always on Christmas do you
need a tree. Always on Christmas do you
need a Christmas Spirit.
I guess that for some in warmer places snow is not always a need for it to feel like Christmas. And others might celebrate Christmas in other ways, not necessarily with trees and lights. But in whatever ways you celebrate, may your Christmas be a merry one.
Merry Christmas to everyone.

I wanted you to...
Masha Yurkevich Apr 2019
i wanted you
to see
but you wouldn't open
your eyes.

i wanted you
to believe,
but all you wanted to you was die.

i wanted you
to feel,
but you ****** away.


i wanted you

to love,

but you didn't go that way.
You've  strayed away.

So I guess you're not foe me. I've tried to do so much for you, but you just threw it all away.

Dumb Memories
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
I have so
many
dumb memories
that hang with my heart.
I think that I
should get rid of them
but I don't know
where to start.
Like that time when you said something
real dumb
and made me laugh,
or that time
when I was so angry,
I broke
your pencil in half.
Oh, that time
when we were passing notes in class
and the teacher
found out and got us in trouble
real fast.
Or that time when
we said all those horrible lies
just to get us
some free alone time.
Thinking of this,
I've made up my mind.
I'll keep these memories and never
leave them behind.
I have a whole collection of these dumb memories, but I will never let them go.
189 · Feb 2019
Friends
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
In life,
you do not lose friends.
You only find out
who the real ones are.
And perhaps make some new ones.

Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
Hold on tight
a little longer,

what don't ****

188 · Jan 2019
Thinking of you
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
Thinking
of you
brings me tears.
I love you
so much,
I don't want you to leave.
At least
if you leave,
promise me you'll
never forget about me.
Because I'll never forget you...
188 · Nov 2018
i cry
Masha Yurkevich Nov 2018
i cry, and no one knows.
i cry, deep at night into the pillows.
But in the morning i get up
and keep my mouth tightly shut.
And to my parents and my peers,
i look as though i haven't shed any tears.
i cry, and no one knows.
i cry, but can't let out my sorrows.
i don't think anyone can see,
what's really going on inside of me.
Because even i don't know,
what's going on inside me,
today or tomorrow.
186 · Jan 2019
Control
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
Often
when we want
control,
it's just better
to let go.
185 · Apr 2019
Forgive you?
Masha Yurkevich Apr 2019
Of course
I'll forgive you!
You're my dear friend!
I love everything we do together
and the time
that we spent!

...

But no,
now you've gone a bit too far.
You're not longer
such a big pleasure.
I don't want
to be next to you
or see your face.
Because what you've done
is not something
I can erase.
You've changed too much. And the things you've done I'm not so sure I can forgive you.
185 · Jan 2019
Same Everyday
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
Everyday
for me is the same.
Wake up,
know what to expect,
go back to bed,
same old thing again.
But I am here,
waiting for something exiting to apear.
Maybe I should just be glad that I'm alive and well in the first place...

Before bed...
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
I keep on waiting
until I will be with you.
When you will come into
my room before bed,
tell me good-night,
kiss me lightly on the cheek,
and make things feel right.
182 · Dec 2018
When I die...
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
When I die,
I don't necessarily want to be
a legacy,
a story,
just someone with a lot of money.
I just want to be a memory.
Someone who lived their life free.
Someone who lived their life worthy.
Someone who made their life into a fun journey.
I don't want to be someone
who swam in money and fame.
I don't want to be someone
who thought that life was a game.
I just want to be remembered
for doing something for this world.
For letting my voice be heard.
I just want to be
remembered for being
who I really am.

Puddles
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
Puddles
line the streets,
covering the frozen earth
underneath. Trees, like veins
stand still to greet the rain.
The wind whispers quietly,
making the weather feel more
ugly. But I don't mind this
dreary weather because
sometimes it just
makes me feel
better.
It's almost Christmas, and there's only rain. Rain that keep on washing away whatever is left of that precious snow. But I guess you really don't need snow to make it feel like Christmas, you just need the spirit.

Only Human
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
I'm only human,
so don't ask me
to be perfect.

I'm only human,
so don't ask me
to be everywhere at once.

I'm only human,
so don't
please,
don't
hurt
me.
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
When life
gives you lemons,
you can't just give them back
and say you want chocolate.

Because life
throws things at you
and you just need
to learn to take them in.

Happy Holidays
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
People celebrate in many different ways.
Some with trees and displays,
others with candles and lights.
But in whatever way you will celebrate,
may your holidays be happy and great.
Happy Holidays!!!

The words I speak
Masha Yurkevich Jan 2019
The words I speak
might not mean a whole lot to you.
But to me,
they speak the truth.
You do not
have to listen to them,
but I will speak them anyway.

The Gloom in Your Eyes
Masha Yurkevich Sep 2019


The dull look of your eyes,
full of hatred
for the whole world.

What has happened to you?

Why is there no longer
that sparkle of love,
that shimmer of happiness,
that glitter of fun,
that glow of kindness.

What has happened to you, my friend?

Clearly,
you are no longer who you were.

And I,
whatever happened,
am not sure.


People change. Let's just hope they change for the best of ways, not for the negative.

Remains
Masha Yurkevich Apr 2019
Digging through the things
you left.
Paychecks, bills;
it's such a mess.
The sight of your name
still brings tears
to my eyes.
I still don't know what brought you
your demise.
I come across a small yellow paper,
my hands shaking,
I wish I could see straighter.
I slowly read
the words on the page,
and my heart quickly fills with rage.
You shouldn't have left,
you should still be here!
Look what you've done!

I wipe a tear.
The yellow paper still in my hand,
so I decide to read
over it again.

I love you, my dear daughter. And I'll do anything for you.
     Wherever I'll be, I'll keep you with me.
                                    

I read it again
and again,
and again.
Those sweet gentle words still resting
in my head.
You might not be here with us anymore,
but for some reason
I feel better than before.
Going through the things that my uncle left before he passed away. It is much harder than I thought it would be.

Shadow
Masha Yurkevich Feb 2019
Around the corner,
here it come,
it's big dark hands ready
to grasp me by
the neck.
I look at it,
it looks at me,
what is happening?
I think.
Just as it was
about to grab me,
I twisted free from my fear,
running like I never ran before.
I look behind me;
it's still there.
I run faster,
and faster yet.
Then I stop.
And it stops too.
I sit down;
and so does it.
Confused,
I run like the wind,
missing steps on the stairs,
causing me to fall.
It falls on me.
I never knew I could be
so scared
of my own shadow.
True story, just in case you were wondering.
165 · Dec 2018
Why? Just why?
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
I may only be fourteen,
but I ponder about many things.
Like why do you have to keep on
paying for your car after you buy it?
It's your's, isn't it? It's not like in five years
your car damages the road more.
Why do you have to keep paying for your house?
Its just standing there;
do you have to pay for it to get older?
Why do you have to pay for your drivers' license?
It's your's once you get it, right? You've worked for it.
Maybe some things I just don't get yet.
Maybe some things I will never get.
I just don't get it. I think and think and think about it, but I still don't get it. Just a few out of the many questions that keep me up at night. Maybe it's just me.

I want to forgive you
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
I want to forgive you,
for all that you've done.
For all those words
you used like a weapon.
For all those moments
that you made the opposite of heaven.
For everything
that you've put me through;
for everything you got me into.
For everything
you said about me and made me think that it was true...

You know what?

I don't think I can forgive you

Deadly Dreaming
Masha Yurkevich Dec 2018
I don't think I should dream anymore;
it hurts me,
more and more.
My dreams bring me up so high,
and then something goes wrong
and my dreams die.
Dreaming is deadly;
it could **** you.
But you shouldn't give up on your dreams,
because each one has its own value.
Keep on dreaming...
