A Poem by plainme
"

mending cracks with gold

"

it is time to dissolve

those gold encased words you use

 

it is time to tell the truth

and to fall back into pieces

that you once were

 

simply fall to the ground

and let me mend you with gold

 

the cracks in your skin

are not forever

 

those cracks in your skin

are the cause of constant leaks

 

so let me mend you with powdered gold

that encased your words

so sweet but bold

Did it happen? Did you get what you are wishing for?
It's a thriving wish, cant see where did it go. But i wish you write the reply to the sequence of this poetic request too... :)

Perhaps it doesn't happen just like that. Perhaps, the words can' dissolve all too well.
But I.. read more
perhaps lies is a too strong word to describe the essence of this poem, but it can be interpreted like that by the reader if he wishes todo so. I'm more interested in the 'message' that the readers get from my poems, and there are always some hidden messages in them, which aren't quite easy to stumble upon. But to answer your question, it wasn't intented to be about lies. It's more about, things we say, things that perhaps seem right to ourselves, but are wrong. Not exactly lies.

Thank you for your reviews, guys.
