Poem Commentary

For some reason unknown to me...I'll enter a piece of writing then when I come back to this web page it is no where to be found. As was with this poem/lyrics/song I just posted. If anyone reads this... has this been happening to you? Thank you for taking the time to read my works of art. Keep smiling.

A Disguise Of Lies

He had the feeling that something was wrong - He was wise
She's been lieing to him but for how long? - Oh how time flies
She'd look in his eyes and say, 'I love you' - But why disguise?
He wanted to believe but he knew the truth - Through the lies

Why the lies after so long? Why disguise?
Why disguise her heart was gone? Why the lies?

He watched his heart drop and hit the floor - Every time
He loved her true but could take no more - No longer blind
He got in his car and hit the road - No more lies
He felt betrayed, he lost control - Why disguise?

Why the lies after so long? Why disguise?
Why disguise her heart was gone? Why the lies?

A quick glance through his rearview mirror - One last time
She couldn't care less, and it was clear - What a crime
He sped down the road, cradled his sorrow - Thoughts of lies
He lost all hope for a tomorrow - He wanted to die

Why the lies after so long? Why disguise?
Why disguise her heart was gone? Why the lies?

He was a white knuckled maniac behind the wheel - He lost his mind
Licking his wounds that would never heal - He's tasted lies
Down the road he saw a big oak tree - Through tear filled eyes
He was found dead at the scene - With a note near by

Why the lies after so long? Why disguise?
Why disguise her heart was gone? Why the lies?
Why the lies? Why disguise?
He lost his mind - Love is blind

Awww this makes me so sad! It reminds me of that country song "Whiskey Lullabye". Very tragic and beautiful song, I can hear a tune for it in my head already. Great writing Matt, I felt every vibe and every nuance of sadness in this heart wrenching piece.

I feel what you talking about and oneday you will find the love of your life. Who will respect the love you give so you both can be one.

Poetry is what gets lost in translation.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
