Let Truth Burn Away Your Deceptive Cloak

Let truth burn away your deceptive cloak
lower vanity's shield, go have a smoke,
even if, a diamond, in love's gold crown
life shows greater rise, after falling down!

In vanity's false, self-proclaimed state
live many victims of their own dark hate,
darkness,...

Broken mirrors crush me under deceptive appearances,
mutilated wisdom whistles hesitantly,
the heron gropes, flying through fragile fantasies and follies lost in the penumbra
Penumbra that pulses,
words flow like a black river rolling shadows,
Shadows that gaze at me with empty eyes,
routine breaks my shattered steps,
meaning seeps away,
I wonder...

The frost is in my toes, 
                                      ...

Sunshine's like warmth, an inviting glow
No jacket today let's play, let's go!!
Retreat, retreat it's cold!
Child looking outside bold
Coolness and shivers hear the wind blow.

Cocoa and warm fuzzes so much fun
The deceptive glow of the bright sun
Had an ill pill effect
On mom's total affect
No alone time...

I read your lover’s poetry,
And saw his deceptive way.
He manipulated your emotions,
Which makes me angry I must say.

He promised to come and meet you,
He promised you everlasting love.
Then told you about another,
Must have felt like a slap with an iron glove.

I feel your pain of...

We deceive and we fib,
To fulfil a desire.
We tell ourselves
We aren’t really a liar.

We might be afraid
Of what others suspect,
Of being exposed
As mentally wrecked.

We might be afraid
Of being detected,
But every lie leaves
Us more disconnected.

From peace, trust , and friends
From people and repute.
Lies leave us aware
We...

Soft lazy clouds push down on sky
Clinging to the heavens with solitary resolve
Heavy wet blankets the oblivious wind
Spreading an icy breath of discontent

One Deceptive Snowflake leads the exodus
Leaving the safeness of sky
Praising in dance new freedom
Giving tow to weary stitches of white

One and more descend...

You think you're so good 
But later I realize that you are the woman, 
Who is cold, hatred, fury, Insensitive and Calloused? 

You are sinfully proud and arrogant.
You think you are so perfect in everything, 
But I know you accuse others falsely and ungratefully

I've trusted...

This poem is a metaphor.



The crying tires,
the shattered glass,
it all happened,
so very fast.

His life it flashed,
before his eyes,
his life always swaddled, 
in set ups and lies.

No direction,
for the good,
he just wanted a life,
that was nurturing and true.

The boys confused mind,
was searching for love,
It was something...

Tonight I'll talk too much and try to and complicate my friends.
Distant conversations, eye contact only now and then.
I try and drown myself in futile disbelief,
Only to be washed ashore by truth here on my computer screen. 

The monsters hand held out, hung me by...

Materialistic things fulfill us temporarily...trifling with our emotions, 
but their shallowness is discerned with bitterness:
when they can't save a life even with invoked mercy so tense...
as powerlessness turns into hopelessness;
can faith help us make the painless transaction into the eternal realm,
without fighting the menacing darkness...

Now I can tell for sure,
That I know a lot about life.
I can tell you something about people
And this opinion is not strict at all.

You know, looks are pretty deceptive,
And cute faces hide the axe behind their backs.
Knowing this, I'm a little unhappy,
I won't be...

From the first moment I laid eyes on her, my vision was forever changed 
Deep thoughts to impress a shallow woman 
Drowning within her lipid pools of water 
Eye contact has transitioned from glance to stare 
Little did I know, her true identity was quite...

The mossy green lump juts invitingly
An overhanging face of vertical formation
Moist rocks often kissed by hovering clouds
The steep trek is overwhelmingly dangerous

Fearlessly she set out for the daunting climb
A pull that attracts goal-driven people like her
Precariously hanging on its edge is the spur 
The most...

Outskirts of the eye,
you have it all together,
grade school--
beauty seems to be
The only factor
birds of a feather-
flock together,
in crowd-
I guess you have 
it made forever,

Until one day
Daddy loses his job,
You move to the projects
Without warning your house
Gets robbed,
You definitely don't
want to put your 
pride to...
