    You Lied

    Love and Pain;
    One,
    the same
    Drive me mad
    then back to sane
    I am here and I am not
    I discovered
    - wasn't taught
    Life, a test... a request...
    a demand
    Pass if your mind is open
    Fail if you can't understand
    Pass or fail
    you're thrown to the dogs;
    Relinquished to society's spectating mobs
    Hope...resides in what is not
    Only rely on what you've already got
    Nobody looks
    - so we can't see
    Falling, ever so gracefully
    God on a keychain
    Left with no plan
    Confusion came with God to man
    Shark infested waters;
    needle in the raft
    One sign read REPENT
    The other, DOLLAR DRAFT!
    Typically sedated; hearts so far away
    In a numb and stupified state of mind
    we stumble through the day
    Horrible atrocities...
    Whispers upon young tongues.
    Always
    Forever
    Divided
    then Done....
    Love you for always
    'til death do us part
    Ending almost before we start
    Demand to know;
    Refuse to cry.
    Like stabbing a man who refuses to die
    My soul is poisoned
    with your innocent lies
    Flames of fury engulfing me;
    swallowing rapidly everything
    Fingers, stifling, choking;
    Gripping my neck as I calmly sit
    sipping chamomile tea...
    I'm reaching out but it's only me
    Blessings, (I've counted) are many and few
    I'm still here and where are you?
    Never what it seems
    Maybe a dream
    They say you snooze you lose
    Feel worn and stained and torn and washed,
    rung out, hung out to dry
    Just so you know,
    when you said "Forever,"
    I already knew you lied.

    Beautiful poem!

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
