Lies Poems
Bucket Pain
by Ally Bell
If pain were a bucket,
You'd be the largest one,
Pouring your trauma out like a faucet
Unto those who show you love
You're like a raging storm,
Leaving destruction in its wake
With thunderous words filled with hate
Yet still, I saw in you the potential to create
When you saw yourself as someone who should have never been born

Fluff words
by Eabha MacDhughaill
I don't have time to wait for the ether to solidify....
So please leave the buzz for the bees and the fluff for dandelions.
I want action, I want reality.
Not pretty sounds suspended momentarily in between us.
There's no meaning in the road pavement leading to the same handbasket they say some go away forever in.

All's Fair in Covert Fuckery
by Frangipani Rhett
Something must be wrong with me
To make me care about a man
Who can't take the time to reply to me
Or simply give a damn
I can only make assumptions
At this point I'm less upset
That he only wanted to fuck me
But too bad for him, I'm not done yet

How Long...
by Raina Hutchins
As the night descends
And darkness is all I see
Tears I cry will fall
Until the morning sets me free
I never knew that lonely
Could bring me so much pain
I never knew that lonely
Could send me so insane

A Lie
by gabriella Blake
I never knew someone could lie quite like this
Fake the warmth, the passion, the smile, the words
Words you have now rendered meaningless for all those to whom you opened that big phony mouth.

broken puppets
by Alexander Palmer
Aren't I just a puppet?
Rotting on your stagnant string,
I'll say that it's all love,
Even when you make me bleed.
And aren't I just your puppet?
Snapping my bones to fit your production,
I'll say that I don't mind it,
Through my retching and disgust.

Let It Go Raw
by Hébert Logerie
Sometimes, it’s okay
To let it go raw
To let it thaw
Above or under the bridge
It is wise or sage
To let it reach the bay
Speak out
Shout out
Let it fall
Let it roll

What am I to believe
by Ravi Hultin
You miss me,
But won't talk to me
Your signals break me
You love me,
But don't want me
I know you care,
But I don't
