True lie.


To every askance silenced,
And to watch the dance of pretence
To match your will with deed
I saw, to fires what you did feed
And still games do play
Are these lives or dolls of clay?
While we watch and that alone
And clutch onto what’s gone
Why do shadows cry?
Why do dreams die?
And the truth nothing but a deceiving lie!

    the background. takes you to a good sunday morning when you dont have to get up early.

    the innate depth in your poetry, completes it.
    and the last couple of lines shake the dream away saying, do something. :)

    that's a negative ma'am. just a genuine admiration of being able to come up with something when given a complement.

    the best i can ever do in such rare instances is, thankyou. :S

    and btw, your poetry makes lovely morning reads. :)

    "And so I shall write more. Thanks so much! Means a hell lot for someone like me. :) "

    now that, is modesty. as for my blog, its been on its deathbed for a long time. so no worries.

    and as for writing more, please do.

    P.S.: I am cheeky. and cheesy. give it time. you will see.

    No. It was intended in a different context all together. :)
