I want to read about lies, whatever you want to write.
Recent or past events. Show me how you feel, if you like it, if it hurts, the consequences, if you need to lie or have to lie. Why would you lie to your parents, to a friend, to your partner...? To anyone! I'm not saying you're a liar, if you don't like lying, just use your imagination and make a poem

My lies

His arms around me
His lips against my cheeks
His breath warm against my skin
His supple body against mine
“That was beautiful, I love it,”
He whispers
I hug him tight and whisper the same
But I wanted more
Something more than that push and shove
Something more than the heave and go
I lie
Because I love him

She looks at me
My best friend June
Her eyes pleading with me
I say ‘ you will be alright honey’
You will be fine,
Your groom will adore you all the time
You look beautiful, so divine
I lie
Because I know nothing is always alright
The beginning of life is always tough
There will be quarrels and sadness
Sometimes there may be heartbreaks

The little girl smiles at the new born puppy
I will love you forever she says
She wants it to be true
But it’s a lie for the puppy
Cos some day she will grow up
And go away
I look at my mirror
And say I am alright
But I am not
I lie
Because it’s just not right
To tell the truth at times.

Lies..




The truth will out it always comes
The pinch within it never numbs
The steady flow is hard to hold
Wrapped up in lies you start to fold




It takes you down it takes you deep
It drags at you it eats your sleep
It buzz's around inside your head
Those heavy lies that you have said




A dart of lies there in your hand
You throw at will and watch it land
That dart one day will surely miss
To return to you it's painful kiss




The truth will out it always comes
The pinch within it never numbs
The steady flow is hard to hold
Wrapped up in lies you st
art to fold

LIAR

I am a compulsive liar

I cannot tell the truth

I will say whatever it takes

To bring sunshine in your eyes

I will do anything

To get my way

You will not be able to read it

On my poker face


Why, you may ask, do you do this

Because I have been punished

For telling the truth

Nobody appreciates it

All I got was punished

Shunned and abused


So now I am Miss Chameleon

Change with the tides

Whatever your pleasure

I will deliver it

For the world only respects lies.

My Mind It Bleeds      


Sometimes I wish
then I don't bother
take me away
because I feel so hollow
take me back I say
to a yesterday
before it followed
through to a tomorrow .
Then maybe some way
the now crazy today
wouldn't be on  
time so late
its borrowed .


My feelings
my needings
you do them both
and here I am pleading
can I kiss your mind
because mine
is bleeding
my soul please entwine
before it starts leaving
a world of you not mine
will leave me seething and kneeling
our clouds of a 9
and love on the ceiling
templar's gone time
and quicker wounds healing
cheap good wine
and nights of a reeling
home cooked we'd dine
each other a new ring
forever fine vine's
endeavour true meanings
I love you so fine
detail starts singing
you and I sublime
my poor eye starts reading
You light up my dark life
because your so appealing
my sexy new wife
apple girl a blossoming
you are the pipe
that plumbed in my lifeline
my tears you wipe
you are my everything .
without you I'd die
and my life would mean nothing
don't listen to lie's
they're a devil
hellish ugly thing .

Lie to Me

"Lie to me please, i won't mind.
Tell me that you'll never hurt me on the inside.
Lie to me please, you have the time.
You can rip me apart, takeing me for a blissful fake based ride.
Lie to me please, i want you to be mine.
You make me so happy standing by myside.
Lie to me,I'm begging you now..."

Realality is an unstable bumpy ground.
Before You,
i took comfort in the shodows,
the lies a thick cloak,
a shroud.

I asked you to lie to me,
in the silence of my room there was sound...

Hand-held


If I held out my hand.
Would you bite it?

If I smile at you.
Would you smile back?

Hand over heartache.
Just be careful.

When you lied to me.
I saw the truth in your eyes.

When I decided to stay.
I knew I'd never leave alive.

Mouth over heartache.
Just be careful.

How we moved on.
Was how much I stood still.

How I felt that then.
Was how it felt in my hands.

Ears over heartache.
Just be careful.

Is it any wonder.
That I felt nothing for you anymore.

Is it any wonder.
That you never admitted in seeing that in me.

Eyes over heartache.
Just be careful.

So now the world knows.
They now know that it was because you lied.

And now the world knows.
That I died when I stayed.

"I Am Happy"

I told you i was happy,
that i'd never lie to you.
I told you i was having,
so much fun.
I told you that spending time,
with you was a joy.
I told you i loved you.
I can tell you anything,
as long as i have this smile.
This smile is always,
always true.
That is what i told you.
These are my lies.
All of them lies.

Be Careful (lecture from my ex)

God watches everything you do
He sees the tricks you play on me too
He recognizes game He know a lie from the truth
What you dish out will come back to you
Times two with much more impact
Throw out fiction you'll get hit with the facts
The fact is your fiction will leave you surrounded
With the gravity of reality
That will surely keep you grounded
I can forgive you but you have to make it right
Or else nothing but consequence will come into your life
You know not what you do only God knows
Go ahead do shows the truth will be exposed
Even if I'm blind there's a such thing as braille
I'll connect the dots and your plot will just fail
You've tried to get over it only took you under
Lower than low you'll live in discomfort
Living a lie you mind as well die
I may be the first but you'll be the last to cry
And guess who'll wipe the tears from your face
The same person you've tried to disgrace
Then you'll realize you made a terrible mistake
But by then it'll probably be too late
So do right by me while you got the chance
For you know not what God has planned

Never Again...

You: Loved me.
Me: I loved you.
You: Didn't like who I've become and how I've changed.
Changed: That's all I've done in your eyes.
Eyes: The one thing that I see of you at night.
Night. The one place where I feel comfort.
Comfort: The one thing I always felt when I was with you.
You: Love me.
Me: I loved you, but what you did was too much and things will never be the same.
Same: Never again..
Never again...........

Liars are the worst people.

I used to lie a little.
But I've never lied to the people I respect.
In fact, I rarely lie anymore.
Usually, I'm lying only to help someone else maintain their lie.
Which is a crappy thing to ask of me.

I like telling the truth.
To quote Plath: "I do it so it feels like Hell. I do it so it feels real."
I'm no saint, but I do prefer the truth...regardless of brutality.

I don't like a smooth-sailing life.
I like a messy and bumpy life instead.
I hate people, and I like hurting their feelings.
And how do you hurt their feelings?
By telling the truth!

I don't usually keep in contact with people.
But when I do, I'd like them to be honest and real with me.
It's easy to keep frieds, but it's not so easy to keep liars.
Liars live in a fantasy world, where everything is fine.
That the very idea of something going wrong repulses them.
That, somehow, telling the truth bores them. (insert Pathology)

Once I spot a liar telling a lie.
Trust is instantly killed.
Come to think of it, the last person I ever truly trusted, and knew they weren't lying to me, even if it's to make me feel better....was 20 years.

Liars do not make good friends, I've tried that.
It always bugs me that they probably aren't being honest with me.
And it always builds up, until I eventually lay waste to the friendship.

For better or for worse; I must protect myself and assure my own safety.
