Glorious Liar

Glorious Liar

A Poem by Teenage poet
"

A liar to be

"

 

You lie to people as you see them
But you lost and will never win
As you lied thoroughly through
Everyone could see you right threw you
Not listening to your desperate stories
So you get your theriotical glories
Have your fun with your drmatic ways
As you people see through it, beaming rays
As you try to fake your way
Others see your lies, and walk away
The blame you set upon me
As you get more desperate atempts
Spincyness of the truth
Starts burning your friend
You fake your way to friendship
Shed your false tears, and quiver your lip
We see you as a liar
No matter what you desire
You no longer matter to us
No go away, you must
We're tired of your cold heart
So now you're going to fall apart
As you fall to the ground
We all laugh, as you drown
So stop your lies
And your fake cries
Sooner or later; you're going to die

No reason for lies. Just twist you up till we can't see the truth. A outstanding poem. I like the story and the ending was very good.

Good subject as well as description. Try not to worry about the rhyme scheme so much and I think you will find your imagery much more pleasent. Couplets work, but only in their right context. Keep up the good work.

I think we have all come across false friends now and then. They can damage us most as we are left unprotected from their schemes. Your use of couplets give it a staccato feel in the flow that makes it seem like a stream of emotions pouring out of you. Give a work constructed of couplets a dramatic feel is hard to do and that you have done nicely.

Now for a few technical points to thing on - on two couplets you did break rhyme.

Think about changing stanzas:

You blame me for your faults
Then try to buy people with that helplessness
You take the truth and spice it up
But it gets to hot for us

to something like:

Then your faults you blame on me
and show to others this inequity
You take the truth and add some rot
a spice that makes truth too hot

Of course, that is just a quick idea for example.

As you end with a tercet, it might work better to add a line break before the last line and add "..." to the line before for more of a dramatic pause like this:

So stop your lies
And your fake cries...

Sooner or later you're going to die

wow. that was a good poem. i like how well it describes the liar. i always love most poetry about actual people [like this one!] , and this one really cuts through to the heart of the liar. you get a great feel for that person you obviously hate so much. i love the line "you fake your way to friendship". it reminds me of so many people....
