Lies.
No more lies to the world I speak,
But deep inside the guilt I feel,
My time on earth I lied,
Many dreams I lied I’ve had,
Many prayers I prayed to live a lie,
Through lies many hurdles I passed,
And lived as if they were all true,
When dreams I weaved shattered,
No pieces of souvenirs I found,
As with all the lies they all vanished.
About who I am I lied,
About my knowledge and skill I lied,
Bad actor I am in this stage called world,
As all lies like arrows pierced,
Through my heart and I lie defeated,
A truth, the only truth in life I found.
Oh’ no more lies I could speak,
No more actions upon untruthful means,
My heart feels no more fear or pain,
But deep inside a pinch I feel,
After making my life a living lie,
Why didn’t I convincingly lied,
To my own conscience that bleeds,
That there is no love for you in my heart.
Thanks for sharing your work!! Hoping all is well in New York!!
VERY VERY WISE! wow that’s a great line…i love it thanks for the kinds words
thank you.
Ah, so true, If only
the lie of all lies would actually work,
we could mend our broken heart by
fibbing it was never hurt. That would be
the one lie acceptible and helpful
to us all.
Beautifully done.
hahaha thnx ur a lot of help with titles….i relaly hate sometimes having titles for poems but then if im giving a good one it helps me actually work on a poem to be honest………but it’s like i dk i can write and think of feelings and just write but it’s like i dk i can never think of titles but hey i love the ideas u give so i dk yet we’ll see hahahaha
you’re on to something in that last stanza. . .it rings truer than i’d like it to. also, i like the way you structured your lines. . .the syntax is really effective.
Ahh the joys of being human, lieing to ourselves and to the world , one of our pitfalls
Ah, to answer that question which actually already sounds answered: The truth hurts, don’t it? ^_^
Anywho, how ya doin? I liked the poem of course, and the format and usage of language is rather fitting (*Likes it a lot).
Thank you very much for your comment. I have always found poetry beautiful, but so far beyond my reach. Compliments to you as well. You are very talented.
