Marketa Richnavska Poems

1.

Opening the old door
closing up the new
How could I have fallen
for something that's not true?
...

I want to soak into your chest
and lie like that for some time
I want to smell your essence in the rest
without others taking it as crime
...

What if the ado
in her chest
was not her enemy
but her confederate?
...

You were my gate to the light of life
even though you threw a shadow,
I was the moon to your sun
and a hammer to your nail
...

5.

The screams inside my chest
Won't let me stay in rest
It's not my heart that moans
It's my demon's underdose
...

My soul
does not moan
anymore.
It purrs
...

How am I supposed
not to want to live fully
when everything I hear from you
since I was a child is
...

Humming the song of the raven
I'm sitting here happy and free
My soul starts to glue up together
the pieces of my humanity.
...

In the middle of the street
where everyone could see
we shared a kiss
and kissed
...

All the shadows hid to the nooks
All the shadows hid under my bed
They don't want to see the evil of the worlds
Now they're crying, they're screaming and I am so sad...
...

Demon's eyes
in the darkness
Demon's eyes
so far away
...

Wonderful place
Beautiful face
Flying stars
And falling butterflies.
...

I locked down my hand
and braided my hair
to prove myself I am free.
...

Open you come
out of the storm
With a new meaning
in a new form
...

I need a chest to lay my head on for a while...
And forget so easily
And forget so fast
All troubles and bruises
...

SUNSHINE JUST KISSED MY NECK
and made my day better

Im just sitting here thinking
...

17.

I chose the path of good and light
the path of truth and care
And even though the dark's in sight
I'll keep standing there
...

Reveal the feathers off your mind
Black - like my soul
Show me what's shattering inside
Erase the coal
...

I need a lullaby
to smooth my mind
when I'm too afraid
to close my eyes
...

Why did I have to meet you?
Why did you need to show?
Oh, please, please, leave me
leave me all alone
...

Marketa Richnavska Biography

I mostly write about my own past and present, I use poetry and fiction to express my feelings and to let my thoughts free, out of my head. I use it as some kind of therapy when I feel like I can't handle my life. I write everytime I'm sad, everytime I feel like I'm in love, every time I can't decide which way to go. It clears my mind and helps me to choose the best I can do. I also write when some of my friends is in trouble and my strong empathy can't let me sleep peacefully. I write about their lives, but I always put something from me in there, something uplifting or something that could help them with their situation. I also have few poems dedicated to my muse - Mother Nature, to praise her, to admire her beauty or to thank her for everything she's given to me. I study British and American Studies in Slovakia, that is why I mostly use English in my poems, but I also have some good ones in Slovak language. What a loss not many of poemhunter members would understand them. Maybe I will translate them someday.)

The Best Poem Of Marketa Richnavska

Proof

Opening the old door
closing up the new
How could I have fallen
for something that's not true?

The parts of me
that were meant to be
shattered no more
are now flying away
more far than they were
shattered before.

You scared away to flee
the certain part of me
the loving, caring, feeling
with no chance of remedy.

But I DON'T want you to suffer
I want to help you see
that not every lie tightens
and that truth can make you free

That if you've been doing wrongs
but suddenly you want it right
It is enough to let it out
and there's no need for fight

That there are those
who want to prove
you won't daunt all
by saying the truth.
