My Heart Won't Go On Over a Sea of Lies

by The Lonely Rose   Mar 27, 2007


The lies you spread out to world.
The world that you live in,
Covered in your own lies.
Afraid to tell the truth.
The man that I fell in love with,
I can't get over.
But that man died a long time ago,
And a new one is born.
What do I think of you now,
I do not know..
You have disappeared into your own life,
I disappear..period..

Do I even remember the way you say your words?
The way you talk to me?
I bet you haven't changed one single bit.
Why should I even care?
My heart got torn into pieces.
You hurt me.
Then why does my heart stay with you..

Just the thought of you
Makes me scream,
Cry,
Smile,
Breakdown.
Think of all the memories I'm stuck with forever.
My insides scared forever.
I'm a total mess now...

I'm still mad to see that you are still lying about who you are..
People need to see your real self..
But hey,
Just Internet right?
You have girlfriends and boyfriends and such...
So no one will ever notice..
The words I'm so afraid of...
Just to say it again to your face
I love you..

You changed though,
Who are you?
I know nothing of him.
I've had enough tears about him
My heart won't go on
It can't....

I'm sitting here crying about a boy who's changed in a man within a short time.
Now this man is a stranger to me..

Will I find someone better over time?
I hope because this man won't let my heart go on over a sea of lies..

    The variety in the stanzas was the first thing I noticed about this poem. Very creative, but not so overly done that it takes away from the poem itself.

    As for the meaning, I did not enjoy that quite as much as the unique method of writing you've used. I do respect the meaning of this poem, and you've written it well, though, so 5/5.

    The lies you spread out to world.
    ^ I think you need to add in "the" before "world"

    And a new one is born.
    ^ It should be "was" not "is"

    I disappear..period..
    ^ I don't think you should use the word "period" it doesn't sound to great here. It's better to be used like this in converstaion not really poetry.

    My heart got torn into pieces.
    ^ I think you should replace "got" with "was"

    I'm sitting here crying about a boy who's changed in a man within a short time.
    ^ THis didn't really sound right to me, maybe you could change it around a bit.

    This was a very emotional poem and I could tell it came straight from the heart. But I felt that some of your sentence structures were a bit off and the flow didn't work too well in some places. I would try and work on that as well as using a broader vocabulary. Nice job though hunny 4/5

    P.S. Palpitations are like your heart beating very quickly like if you are scared or something =P
