Lies

on the spot

Lies

that you've told

haunt you

and now

the echoes from the wall

are humming

silently 

steadily

flowing

to your brain

the shadows on the wall

seem to mesmerize you

take you

to another planet

until you forget

who you are

I was taught that liars often reap what they have sown. In other wards the lie will catch up to you one day. Usually at a very bad time. Valentine

Nice work Khatoon :) I enjoyed your word choices in this one.

a true tale of regret and hurt. A beautiful poem, thanks for sharing this with me. People need to let go of their hurt and the lies and deceit otherwise it will destroy us all. Have a great day.

Beautiful yet a haunting piece.
The heaviness and hollowness a lie leaves in it's wake, is felt.
Loved it!

Like how you structured this piece and the word selection on each line. Well done.

I like the swaying physical outlook of the text. It Seems to personify the contorted self image cause by guilt accurately. I like the hypnotic feel as well; the relationship between this and memory creates a strong effect. Well done
