A mouse in the house of a thousand lies

the creature crawls
listening
people fall
into the meloncholy of there own lives
as his thoughts absorb
the lies evermore

 

all the arguments-
relationships dying
loved ones crying
as his thoughts absorb
the lies evermore

 

undying sacrements
ulderlying the notion
of so much bad intent
as the stubborn minds
of so many lives
making no attempt of mending
their love back together
as his thoughts absorb
the lies evermore

 

mirrors shattered
pictures torn
feelings that are lost
and never reborn
never a good reason why
never seemed to be a good time
to revive
everything they once had
as his thoughts absorb
the lies evermore

 

the creature creeps
trying to escape
what has fallen on innocent ears
so many tears
he has witnessed in vein
as he breaks away
into the rain
as his thoughts absorb
the lies nevermore

Very nice piece ! I think every writer feels this!

[Lyn Anderson]

This is an introspective (relationship?) piece. Noticed vein is likely vain and sacrement is sacrament. Other than that, great write.

[Jon of York]

Great Work. Love the perspective as if from a mouse or child was stuck in a house of horrors. I hope the escape was without great scars and bruises and they were healed over time.
