#false poems on Hello Poetry

McDaniels A Gyamfi Nov 2014

Milk for meat
Hype for hope
Lies for love
Ashes for beauty
And yet we all said "amen"
Puppet master
Thy humble puppets, enthralled
...and we have anointed you;
To tell us ...
  What we want to hear
  What we want to read
   What we want to watch

You have execute thy duties;
Tickling our ears to perfection,
With feathers, dipped in ******
Our souls; numbed
our hearts; tangled in lies.

The parade
The confetti
The Loyalist
An ovation;
To he who sits
lonely, on his throne;
Feeding our emotions,
In your own emptiness.
Sensationalism
Emotional
Temporarily
Seasonal
Hypnotized
Roller coaster ride...
We are dead, like the last generation.

In a world of high speed species, we hardly pause for reflections and choosing wisely. We amen anything that has societal aura and illusions, to the neglect of reality

RIGHT WRONG

SOFT
I imagine your touch

HARD
to want you this much

TRUE
I hunger and ache

FALSE
you are not a mistake

"i care"

dont tell me you care
cause I'll believe you
I'll put all my trust in you
then you'll leave
and ill be left to believe that the trust i once put into you
you didn't put into me
and then every time someone else says "i care"
I'll laugh in their face
and tell them that they made a mistake
because no matter what they say
the day will come
they will push me away

false idols

Tired of the sleepless nights
Thinking if my percieved reality is a
reflection
Of my desires
Or if we stand here flesh and bone
Paranoia making fresh wounds of the scars
left...
From the last time i adored false idols
But the song of the siren drew me from the
night
And it fed me the nectar of its fruit
So her venom now flows through my veins
My every thought laced with the poison
whoms cure lies in the sirens cloak.

Taster's Choice

Here's where the line goes
for the show, maybe
Although I'm fairly sure it is
and I know that I'm first
Here's where the worlds collide
and the lies in their songs unfold
Forest of feast and tactility
Do I love you and need you?
Well, false to both, though
I admit you're my favorite

A veil of secrets
keeping you bleak and
numb, vacuous, and dumb
Are you in deep with the rhythm or open and bald
of your original skin and placement?
A different life, or would you say paradigm?

Lonely

Sometimes I wonder
where is the people
that say they will be by my side
in the good and the bad times?

They suppose to be here
helping cleaning my tears,
taking a good smile
from this sad scar.

Oh, dear loneliness
you became part of my life
Now its just you and me
walking through the path.

What's going on next?
Who I suppose to trust?
"No one should be trusted,
now you will have to be alone."

I constantly could feel
like drowning in a glass of water,
always looking for answers

It's time for me to be happy
with them or alone
It's time to stop please them
and become someone who I will be proud of.

Oh, dear loneliness
thanks to be by my side
you help me to understand everything
and now its time to act.

is this real

What is real?
What isn't?
Is anything anymore?
I can't tell
I don't know if I'm real
I'm lost
Who am i?
What do i like?
What don't i like?
Who is real?
Are you?
Can you prove it?
No.
No one can.
We're guessing.
Assuming.
I need to know you're real
One day I'll fall and trust you to catch me
Will you really be there to save me?
Or will i fall through the air and into a bottomless pit of nothing?

I'm not even mad at them. I'm mad at myself for becoming so dependent on people who couldn't give a **** about me. They say they'll be the one person who will alway be there, yet in time they prove to be just like everyone else: leaving me in the dust. I get that I'm not good enough, but stop making promises you have no intention of keeping. No hope is better than false hope.

Golden Boy

You make promises after you've already planned to break them, I know, but your tongue is as sweet as God's forbidden fruit.

I love you... I love you, so why can't I have you?

You kiss me and I am yours... Until I wake up, of course. I need you in my life.

Everyone knows that you are golden, but only I know that it is simply painted on.

You are hiding the weak, rusted boy you truly are with these false shades of gold.

So get out of my dreams and get out of my life, because I do not want you... I may need you, but I do not want you.

Take your beloved *** of golden paint with you when you leave and promise me that you won't ever return.

Please don't look back at me over your shoulder... No, never look back.

I hate you... I hate you, but I do not want to upset you with my tears over your departure.

Don't look so lost, golden boy. I'm just sad that I'm losing the one thing that I genuinely need. I'll get over it.

I hate you... I hate you for being so false, yet so irresistible.

You are not a man, golden boy. You are nothing but an imposter...

So tell me why **I love you.
