Tired Of Deceit (Strike 3)

by Natalie   Oct 20, 2006


Rainbow replaced overcast cloud,
Sunlight shone above hidden trees,
Winter snow melted underground,
Earths core established memories.
(Strike one: You were lying to me.)

Unworthy trust handed to hearts,
No protection for unhealed sores,
Arms wide open assuming best,
Unprepared for upcoming wars.
(Strike two: You lied to me again.)

Moon's shadow taking its last toll,
Stars dimming within murky skies,
Downpour of rain soon expected,
You can't control your heart of lies.
(Strike three: I'm tired of deceit.)

    Creative-- not only the meaning itself, but also the endings of each stanza-- the title makes a lot more sense after reading the poem. Nice job! 5/5.
