Lies Poems

Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.
I'm not cute or built to suit a fashion model's size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I'm telling lies.
...

He is that fallen lance that lies as hurled,
That lies unlifted now, come dew, come rust,
But still lies pointed as it plowed the dust.
If we who sight along it round the world,
...

A dream lies dead here. May you softly go
Before this place, and turn away your eyes,
Nor seek to know the look of that which dies
Importuning Life for life. Walk not in woe,
...

When my love swears that she is made of truth
I do believe her, though I know she lies,
That she might think me some untutored youth,
Unlearnèd in the world's false subtleties.
...

Take the cloak from his face, and at first
Let the corpse do its worst!

How he lies in his rights of a man!
...

Under the wide and starry sky
Dig the grave and let me lie.
Glad did I live and gladly die,
And I laid me down with a will.
...

O ME, man of slack faith so long!
Standing aloof--denying portions so long;
Only aware to-day of compact, all-diffused truth;
...

It's in the heart of the grape
where that smile lies.
It's in the good-bye-bow in the hair
where that smile lies.
...

Drake is going west, lads
So Tom is going East
But tiny Fred
Just lies in bed,
...

Here lies a most beautiful lady,
Light of step and heart was she;
I think she was the most beautiful lady
That ever was in the West Country.
...

He is that fallen lance that lies as hurled,
That lies unlifted now, come dew, come rust,
But still lies pointed as it ploughed the dust.
If we who sight along it round the world,
...

Can you not see the sorrow, in someone's tearful eyes,
Or see the dread, in someone's weary frown.
Can you not see the fear, when someone's telling lies,
Or feel the sadness, in the laughter of a clown.
...

Tell all the truth but tell it slant,
Success in circuit lies,
Too bright for our infirm delight
The truth's superb surprise;
...

My dove, my beautiful one,
Arise, arise!
The night-dew lies
Upon my lips and eyes.
...

At night, when the sea cradles me
And the pale star gleam
Lies down on its broad waves,
Then I free myself wholly
...

Your words dropped into my heart like pebbles into a pool,
Rippling around my breast and leaving it melting cool.

Your kisses fell sharp on my flesh like dawn-dews from the limb,
...

O make me a mask and a wall to shut from your spies
Of the sharp, enamelled eyes and the spectacled claws
Rape and rebellion in the nurseries of my face,
Gag of dumbstruck tree to block from bare enemies
...

"Is my team ploughing,
That I was used to drive
And hear the harness jingle
When I was man alive?"
...

I could not dig; I dared not rob:
Therefore I lied to please the mob.
Now all my lies are proved untrue
And I must face the men I slew.
...

beware lie habit innocent lies
even lies gross lies heinous lies
become the only truth if believed
justice rarely rules the world
...

In the midst appreciation lies endeavour,
In the midst abundant lies nature,
In the midst accomplish lies hard work
In the midst aesthetic lies beauty.
...

lies do math
multiplication tables

subtract innocence
...

A TRUTH LIES AS A SEED SOW DEEPLY ROOTED IN SOIL,
A TRUTH LIES AS CLOUD COVERS THE UNIVERSE,
A TRUTH LIES AS A LAYER OF OCEAN TOUCHES THE SKY,
...

In the above all, lies a great attitude,
In the above all, lies a respect,
In the above all, lies a honor,
In the above all, lies a calm,
...

Lying is not a philosophical ideology
Or a religious doctrine
It's not even an art
Lies are despised pieces of rubbish
...

Lies told! ! !
Everyday on earth;
Mankind on earth!
Musing along with our works.
