The Liar - My First Attempt at a Poem
Posted: Saturday, April 04, 2009

This is my first attempt for a poem. It makes no sense, but it is about a liar, who speaks no truth. He seems to be nocturnal from the first quanza it seems. Some of the rhyming bits are off (with plurals etc.) and the ending isn't brilliant but I think I did relatively well for my first attempt, and if it's liked, I might right more. Well, I think I might have said too much, so onto the poem!
The Liar
At the sun rise,
The liar hides,
He hides his lies,
His hope, his pride.
At the sun set,The liar hides,
He hides his lies,
His hope, his pride.
The liar awakes,
And his conditions,
They must be met.
The liar escapes,
The people who know,
Will say: "So soon?"
The liar lies,
And feels no guilt,
That hidden sigh,
Will soon be built.
And feels no guilt,
That hidden sigh,
Will soon be built.
