Two new poems...

The mask was worn not to hide
But to show the world a false eye.
The laugher is loud and shrill
Donning Tragedy has become a thrill.

When one can cry and attention gain
Why would Comedy still remain?
When one can falsify their life
Why feel Tragedy's strife?

The mask is worn to become,
Flashing eyes hidden from the sun.
Truth leaves and lies remain,
Falsehood is the truth retained.

A forged life, and fraudulent passions,
Slandering one's own true fashion.
A mask is worn to beguile and deceive,
Deluding others to falsely believe.




Accuracy is wrong, lies are truth,
Rectitude lives only for youth.
Where the candor breathes in whispers,
Verity only remains in pictures.

Dark eyes shatter all you know,
Illusion is their only show.
Precision lies in their hands,
Veracity isn't in this land.

Loss of candor, loss of truth,
Where is hope for these youth?
None is heard in shuddering whispers,
As fire destroys truth's last pictures.

first off, I love your last name;
second, I love these poems.

I really like the first one. Even though I usually dislike rhyming stuff, that one in particular is really good.

Thanks, guys! I really liked writing them. Can you guess what they're about? Heeheehee.

buahaha.

the second is my fav.
at least yours arent as long as that one I posted a few months back! it could have been a bloody novella >.<

LOL....well, poetry has no limits. It's the quality, not how long or how short it is.

I have some really long epic poems, too!

ahhh I remember when I wrote it, and I had just like, a blank. it had been ages since I wrote a real poem.

Gardner gave me an assignment [it was a trick to figure me out, the bastard] to write about how I felt, and seeing as Ive got a vagina, I had to be dramatic [!!!] - especially since I hadnt done that since I gave Garin his valentines gift - a journal with something written on each page of how I felt about him. took ages to fill the damn thing up >.<
