You're A Misconception Made With All The Right Intentions.

by Stephanie   Mar 5, 2008


No. No. It can't be over.
There's a voice in my jumbled head telling me to not look back, not even for a second. But my eyes seem to disagree. And I keep repeating to myself that I was just a klutz and I didn't fall from that look in your eye, which say more than what your lips ever did.

I'm tripping, stumbling over the past and my heart; I can't seem to figure out where we took this wrong turn. So many choices we could have made instead, to mislead us away from this dead end. My heart burns. Oh, it burns with a sense of knowing and a feeling of being broken. And you can't fix me this time [much less fix yourself].

You're a misconception I made with all the right intentions. I hope you intend to see me the same way? Otherwise the misconception is useless, just like this poem which is just going to be another to be thrown away. So for once, I'm asking for you to lie and maybe lie about the lie. Because there's a chance for survival if the truth isn't real. So lie to me baby. Lie. Because it can't be over. It just can't.

    I loved how you began and ended your piece the same way. It was effective in getting your message across and those last phrases really stick with the reader after they finish reading. I loved the style you choose to write in because it was unique and you master this stlye perfectly. Not once was I bored throughout this piece and I was left wanting more! I loved your beginning to the second stanza. It was the line in the piece that stuck out to me the most and completed the poem for me. The flow was flawless as always and the way you incorpirated the title into the poem was perfect. Well done *5/5*

    Thank you for commenting my poem =]
    I did indeed like this poem very much. It's as if all the feelings and emotions are described and explained perfectly in this piece of art.
    "So for once, I'm asking for you to lie and maybe lie about the lie. Because there's a chance for survival if the truth isn't real. So lie to me baby. Lie. Because it can't be over. It just can't." I loved the ending. Sometimes it's better to lie so that you might never feel the intense pain and heartbreak that truth does to people. Lovely! 5/5
