Lies

A girl that lied... She didnt know how to tell the truth or how to show how she felt. Everyone thought she was ok... but really she was in pain.

Its all just a lie

I am hiding from the truth

Afraid to show how I feel

Nobody knows I miss him

Or that I am still deeply in love

The only thing they know are lies

They think I am ok with this

They dont know I cry

That I have restless nights

My life is like a nightmare

The sun no longer shines

Its so dark and I'm all alone

I am afraid...

My heart broken

I am in pain...

I continue to wipe the tears away

My face dry and looking hopeless

They dont know that I still have pictures of him

That I look at them over and over again

Trying to comfort myself

Nobody is here

And nobody knows

That everything I said

Was all just a lie

i think u have a great mind for poems

Pride is a curse, I tell you. My advice for you is that you are never alone. People will understand. Don't be afraid to let go and surrender to your emotions because that's the first step on moving on. You have to cry and let it all out. And, more often than not, someone would be willing to be a shoulder to cry on. I can totally relate to what you are feeling. This poem is written with such honesty, ironically, as it is about living a lie. Good work you got here. Keep it up!

Well Manda, this is one great poem. It has a lot of emotion and good components of poetry, One suggestion- maybe take out the pronouns, see how it sounds and if you like it. Great job.

This hurts, very badly.

[Tina Kline]

The anguish of emotional pain, the tragedy of trying to survive and recover from a broken heart. Sad. Sad. So very sad.

i thought this was great

[Havatara]

I so agree with this! It hurts when someone leaves you, whether they choose to do so or not. I thought maybe you could separate it into stanzas, and have the tenth line start the second stanza and the seventeenth line start the third stanza, but that is entirely up to you. Great job.
