I'm a liar - Poemz - Kriven - 02-12-2010 I'm a liar, I am, I am! Staring Contest I look at him, He looks at me. Our glares bore into each other’s eyes, His are blue, A halo of gray around the pupil. Just like mine. I blink once, Now twice. He did the same. We have both lost, Our blinks timed together. We pause briefly, then the war carries on. I scrunch my face in disgust, And he returns with scrutiny. His eyes hide a deep secret. I want to tear it out of him. But I relent, my lids having grown heavy, And I look away from the mirror. Final Farewell They arrive in droves And gather upon the grass, Young and old, men and women With clothes blacker than starless night. Heads bowed, listening to silence, They sway slightly as though blown by the wind, And look down, eyes focused on the Coffin. How did it happen? - Suicide. - No, murder. Their murmurs rise as time crawls by, But the mournful air does not subside. Family, and friends, all have come Together to see off that man now lying Dead In wood; oak it would seem. Flowers fall upon the bed, A blanket of roses, lilacs and lilies. The visitors continue to pray, to mourn, though some Cannot bear to see longer, And turn away, or into shoulders As water slides down their rose-red cheeks. Silence settles over them again. The flowers stop falling, The sobbing silences, But the mourning goes on, As they bid their friend His final farewell. RE: I'm a liar - Poemz - Makermatic21 - 06-08-2010 Your first poem is kind of funny and random. Your second is defantly thought out more. Your final is chilling and sad. I like them.
