The Liar, I Am

pretty much me

Unzip this file
And I’ll pour out the seams
Ready and willing to fight for something
I’m not even sure I believe in
Cursing and writing him off
(You off)
When all I really want is recognition
For the things I’ve suffered
On behalf of him (you)
That left me in this condition

But no, I am the Liar,

Damning you when I’ve really
Just wanted to drop my weapons
And hear you utter an apology
Even though you’ve broken the reception
And the fact remains always that you let me cry
For immeasurable time unmentioned
You let me cry
You let me cry
Without really hearing my confessions:
I am the Liar
The Liar, I am
For loving you still without question.

the words are so deep .... this is an amazing write

[Kara Hadley]

this was a really good poem. i fully understand the message, and i think just about anybody can relate to it.
the writing is great.
my favorite part: "On behalf of him (you)" i love the way you change who this is directed at just be changing one word.

a really great piece.

[~crazy Beautiful~]

this piece would be a perfect to read aloud, seems rant like to me
i especially liked the last stanza
you let me cry and repeating it made it seem more powerful
nice work
thank you for entering my contest

It's like the poem I've yet to have written, and the poem I've always wanted to hear all at once. I both empathize with you, and sympathize with myself through these words, as well as see within them the secret dream of a lover I am wishing to love with my whole heart.

Your words can make one swoon...and that is awe inspiring...I believe myself to be inspired.

Brilliant write!

Thanks for sharing the emotion.

Funny how you can read something that has nothing to do with you, and still find that you had a desperate need to hear it. In the name of empathy or punishment. This is a piece like that.
This is beautiful work. Truth unfolding, realizations riveting the soul down, to be still enough to learn.

Wonderful.

This is very well written.. the begnning lines, first verse drew me in.
I have felt this before and you expressed it well..a way to get over heartbreak in my opinion is to write about it.
Very good.

But, no, I am the Liar, damning you when I�ve really
Just wanted to drop my weapons

The truth would not have helped.
In affairs of the heart, neither truth or logic seem
to help.

A nice flowing work. I would have liked it much more
if had not dealt with the oldest problem in society, heartbreak.

This is very well written. I would like to see more.

The words are so profound, "You let me cry
You let me cry
Without really hearing my confessions:
I am the Liar
The Liar, I am
For loving you still out of question."

i enjoy this MUCH more than the the previous revision for the following reasons

1) the length is better suited to the subject
2) to me it feels lyrical and nature, and with a nice lil chorus & some editing it could be a song - i "hear" it w/piano in my mind
3) the use of the word "immeasurable"

hey i read this a little earlier today but didn't get a chance to comment. i like.

"Damning you when I�ve really
Just wanted to drop my weapons
And hear you utter an apology "

isn't that the truth? but it'll never happen, not the way we want it to.
