Rumors

by Meena Krish   Jul 30, 2009


Rumors,
spread like fire
giving no chance to explain.

Lies hail with a wide grin
reveling in pleasure.

It burns all truth
leaving behind

footprints of disgrace.

A clouded life shrouded.

In the mists of shame and anger,

a distressed heart is unable to...

break free,

breathe,

or find solace.

Eyes have no rest from pain.

Rumors

When will it end?

When will lies cease to exist?

When will truth show itself and crush these rumors?

    I feel your pain as I myself had been the subject of rumors and untruth.
    There are many who thrive on spreadding rumors and twisting the facts.I believe these types of people are the lowlife's who get some sort of personal satisfaction through this.
    You penned this nicely though it's sad.
    Keep up the great work my friend.

    Rumors are the poison that gives gossip the power.
    I like the random style , and you wrote something that everyone should read and think over.
