Too Many Times, Too Many Lies

by aDORKable x3   Apr 18, 2007


To ask me to relive the time when pain was all I had,
Is something I'm not ready to do; the feelings, just too sad.
I'm hurting on the inside, I'm crying on the out;
My shattered memories keep filling me with doubt.

The screaming that I've heard, still ringing in my ears-
Brings me back to a time when my life was full of fears.
Hiding in my room with the pillow over my head,
Trying to drown out each hateful word you said.

Words, spoken, that should've never passed your lips-
Hiding her face as with the bruises on your hips.
Cover up and powder becoming her new best friend;
Wishing that this life would finally come to an end.

Atrocities committed against the humanity of a girl-
Forced to live the horrid life inside a messed up world.
You've seen it all before, there's nothing new to tell-
About a lonely girl who live on Earth's Hell.

The bruises surpass the heartache that she is forced to endure;
Wanting this life to end; she was never so sure.
So with her last breath, she looks around and cries:
"I'm sick of all this; Too Many Times, Too Many Lies."

    This reminds me of the poem my friend wrote for me awhile back, and it brought tears to my eyes just as the other did. There is one thing, you had "life" instead of "live" on that one line; I do believe that is what you meant to say haha. But anyways, I really liked this and I especially liked the end, it really wrapped it up. Your talent continues to grow with each poem, as does your vocabulary. 5.5

    I LOVED this!
    The opening was perfect, had me completely hooked, the flow was flawless throughout, imagery created vivid pictures and I could see the emotion and depth behind the words.
    The ending was perfect, and although this is such a sad poem, it sure was a pleasure to read.

    I think it's difficult to write this type of deeply negative poetry without reaching for easy chichés, but you've gone a long way towards avoiding that with both your choice of phrasing and the fact you've kept a good pace and a succinct length.
