18.

I woke up at around 2am today.

All to a song that reminded me of you.

Playing in the background of this dark room.

The sun had not shine yet,

But you were the first person that came to my mind.

You've been the first thought in my head for two months, with every day that went by.

I missed the exchanged letters,

And I missed the subtle stares.

I missed the way you'd pass by me,

And seeing you tie up your hair.

My heart was so full of you,

I didn't even know there was a little left of me in it.

My heart was so full of you,

It made it's way into my soul.

I never forgot the way your smile lit up my days,

Like how I never forgot how today is your birthday.

I ache to fill the void of silence between us.

With words of greetings,

With blown out candles.

It's bitter-sweet to feel you stand beside me,

But it's so sweet to see you regularly.

I yearn for you near,

I want you close.

Please talk to me,

It's you I need the most.

I wanted to be better for you.

I was ready for the changes I was going to make.

Could you talk to me for a moment?

Let me know of all of my mistakes?

Words are lingering in my throat,

But my tongue is tied up.

So my eyes spoke for me,

But did you get the message?

I hope you enjoyed your birthday.

I hope you enjoyed eating your cake.

I hope you had fun,

I hope you're doing okay.

You deserve all the love and all the attention, even if it wasn't your special day.

I was never meant to be your 18th rose, but that's okay.

Because I still love you. So I truly hope you had a Happy Birthday.

With all the love I could never send to you,

With all the words I could never say,

With all of the paper rings, the letters, the poems, the songs my hands could ever make,

With all the late night conversations I still yearn for,

With all the glances you stole from me,

And with all the quick stares I still make towards you.

Happy 18th birthday. I am still deeply, desperately, madly, and hopelessly, stunned by you as a person.

He knew

He knew , But he left for his BBQ , He knew he knew he knew , I was hurt that day , I was ruined , No return , No concern , No reverse , And even though he knew , He already had a back up, Some woman he was about to hook up, Whilst laying next to me , His rebound is now his new found, They’re happily engaged and soon to have a babe, I just wish it didn’t take so long to…

Smile on the days that it hurts the most; show them they didn’t get the best of you.

5 months back..

Terrace garden, sunset daydream

Where we had our first ice cream

I fell in love with her

3 months back…

She was with her loved one’s there

Oblivious to the one back here

My Answer to the question’ who it will be?’

Suddenly became’ she’

Sun came up , night passed away

Taking away the ‘star’ along the way

For every tear she cried

I wouldn’t lie

I died a little bit inside …

I was in love with her…

Few months back..

Feelings which were meant to be suppressed ,

Only inflamed

‘ i don’t trust you 100%’ she claimed

Every word that she spoke clenched my heart,

‘I don’t feel like talking to you’ tore it Apart.

Heart turned cold as hard as stone

But… i was still in love with her

Few days back

Parting our ways didn’t helped

What i feel she also felt

‘Yes , i like you stoopid’.. she said

And i was in love with her..

And now

It’s 5:10 am, and here i am

Rejoicing over her voice

Every morning waking her up at 5

Feels like paradise

And here i sit … still in love with her

6 months from now

We’ll bid our farewell

In my memories she’ll dwell

I’ll move away to her hometown

And she , to somewhere else

And i will still love her

3 years from now

I’ll be on the battleground

Putting day in day out, sweating everything out.

Forging out that dream

Still be missing out first ice cream

Yes I’ll miss her ,in my imagination I’ll kiss her

And i will still love her…

5 years from now

Dreams turns into reality

handwork and prayers pays off

And my life have some clarity

The world wants me for what i have achieved, and that alot wish,

But.. she’s still the one I’ll miss

And i will still love her

60 years from now

Eternity has passed

Mortals cannot last

Living a life i longed for

Thanking god that i got a chance for

On my deathbed the last thing that i wish

Is to get one last kiss

Hold her hand and disappear in the blue

…then also… i will still love her

I love her ..my jewel

Introducing Matthias Helvar

I was made to hate you

with everything in me

I was made to hate you

without consideration

without deliberation

without mercy

hate became my teacher, hate became my mother

hate became my purpose, hate became my lover

I was ready to let it consume me

I was ready to let it become me

but even when

my muscles became steel

they couldn't warm me

my heart became stone

it couldn't serve me

was it really hate? Or was it fear instead?

was I afraid if I didn't hate you enough

I'd end up dead?

because when you matched my glare, stood toe to toe and looked into my eyes

and proved you were everything I have ever known to despise

I couldn't do it

it wasn't me

my hands around your throat didn't put me at ease

I knew the very act of considering mercy was treason

and yet how could I not

when you were just someone

I was taught to hate without any reason?

your hand in mine warmed me more than any fire ever did

your smile comforted me more than that hatred ever did

I was taught you were unnatural, you weren't meant to exist

that you deserved nothing more than the steel of my blade and the weight of my fist

but if that is true

then I'm as unnatural as you

and I love, I love, I love you

I'll love you

with my last breath

I was made to protect you, and I will, even in death

Love Bites

I'm tired of the low.

Sleepless nights,

Daydreams,

And overthinking.

Cigarettes -- my problem solver.

A buzzed head with the fear of dying.

Take it all away from me if you must;

I just want to this all to be numb.

- A.Y.

Running

I spend my time wandering in the the woods that you planted upon my smile

You tend to shine through the leaves upon my chest

It is said we run to things that give us comfort and if its a run then I must be sprinting because

Im quick to find you

-An original poem by Roberto Reyes

I took a photo of a coffee cup/ bought seven in a Sunday market and hoped/someone I love could come/ home so I could/ make all this new coffee I bought as well. My bones are twisting into/ faces I can't recognize/ the lamps pondering at their reflection/ I fear they have caught feelings/ limbs learning how to ache.

in the sharp breath of the night/ the same cup of coffee siphoning into anxiety/ life without you feels like I’m missing out ( a phantom limb) /time leering at the stop-sign waiting to dash across/ living inside out/ the pastry crumbles in the box on the train. Dismembers.

into a drunken man apologetic for his apologeticness/ in your absence, I cry less and fear more/ in your absence I struggle to leap but in your absence I know I have to unearth to find the joy again.

It’s okay to never let go, to hang on by the last thread of remembrance in hopes that, that memory never dies. It’s okay to never let go, for the thought of the past is what pushes your future.

Sincerely,

MKay
