Longing Poems
A Love to Cherish
by Aditi Hayaran
Let me tuck a flower—
A pretty accessory, to your hair.
As a best friend, as a lover,
Let me spoil you with my care.
Let's have late-night walks,
And visit the park nearby.
Let me make you laugh,
And hug you tightly when you cry.

Promise
by Teo Luchin
“Only kiss me on my forehead,
if you're trying to make me yours."
A gentle sterness in your voice.
A soft command that echoes.
Is it a dare or a boundary?
I still can't decide.
And now here you are, wrappen in nights emrace.
As I see myself leaning in.

Long Ago
by bella fishI lie there rambling on about something that doesn’t matter anymore. I look up at my phone, I see the look in your eyes and the smile tugging at your lips. My heart flutters and I smile back, my face heating up and a slight pink blush appears on my cheeks. I stare into your eyes for a moment, getting lost in them for what seems like forever. I bury my face into my pillow, smiling as I let out flustered squeals. I loved the way you looked at me, the way you listened, the way you spoke to me. It made me feel special, and overjoyed. But then I woke up. I sit up in my bed cold, phone dead, window open and the wind blowing my curtains. I wrap my blanket around me, and I hug my blanket to my chest. I rest my face on my knees and sniffle.

by Hébert Logerie
I spend days thinking of you
And nights dreaming of you
Your smiling image is stuck in my eyes
And your voice is buzzing in my ears
It’s fascinating after so many years
I’m still reminiscing of your sweet apple pies
When you used to spoon-feed me
And wipe my lips with kisses of honey.
I tried to forget you, to move on

Interrail
by Raul Hultin
Days, weeks, months, a year,
I know you won’t be here.
What am I to do?
Swipe left, swipe right,
Go out every night.
But still I think of you
Feelings 03
by Mario Odekerken
You touch nothing,
yet everything burns.
My thoughts fracture
in the gravity
of your presence.
Toen de liefde in mij op jou verliefd werd
by Mario Odekerken
Het was geen bliksem,
geen plotseling ontwaken.
Maar een zachte beweging
die niemand zag.
Alsof mijn hart
zich herinnerde
wat mijn hoofd nog niet begreep.

Do you miss me too
by Mario Odekerken
Do you miss me too,
when the night folds into silence,
when the hours stretch longerthan they should?
The distance keeps us far apart,
a horizon I cannot reach,
a road that doesnot end.
But my longing for you doesn't ever stop,
it carries itself through every breath,

Mijn Poolse Parel
by Mario Odekerken
Jij kwam als de zon na een lange nacht,
met warmte die door mijn muren brak,
alsof jij altijd al wist waar mijn hart op wachtte.
Je bent vuur,niet wild maar wijs,
een vlam die niet verbrandt,
maar alles in mij wakker kust.
Je stem draagt de melodie van verre oceanen,
je blik heeft de diepte van eeuwenoude bossen.
In je lach huist de geest van je land,

Innig verlangen 02
by Mario Odekerken
Innig verlangen,
een blik die blijft hangen,
een stilte vol woorden
die nooit zijn gezegd.
Adem stokt,
de tijd houdt stil,
en in het gemis
groeit het gevoel.
