Sun watches how I lie,
But moon knows why.
We know why we lie.

i've cried myself to sleep way too many times
i shouldn't say i'm fine
it's just a huge lie

Mia Sadoch Jan 2019
Maybe I'm in the right
Or maybe I'm the bad guy.
The truth of the matter is
I couldn't care less.

I just want to live my own way
Free of doubt and needless struggle
I was prepared for enemies
I don't mind them because I have loyal friends.

I just don't believe in living a lie...
So I'll make my own truth.
No matter who gets in my way.
Live your life, not others'.

A boy once told me:
„I'll always be there for you."
But tell me what happend to that always...
The boy once told me:
„I love you."
But boy, did you just deprive yourself of this love?
You promised:
„If you need to talk, I'll be there in ten minutes."
So please come on and speak with me now, 'cause I have a lot to discuss about.
He said:
„when you need to get ******, because you can't handle that **** at all, just call.."
because you exactly knew that feeling.
Boy you were the only one, who ever thought the same way like I did.
You rhymed:
„Let's create some new habits on this ruined planet."
And made me smile with that not exactly rude sentence, but your crude presence.
And oh boy that moment when you told me that I look pretty and I remarked;
„thanks but no, I don't think like this..."
And then you looked at me in a way, that was given me the feeling, that I'm the most wonderful thing in the whole **** universe.
Boy tell me, who are you looking at now?
Please let me know what happens to all of those phrases.
Was that all just about empty words?
And boy confess me how it was possible for you to get rid of me so easily.
I never wanted it to end like this.
I never wanted it to end.
It never was supposed to end.
End.
Isn't that hilarious?
End?

I told her how I felt,
And how she made me hurt,
She had made my heart melt,
Back when she was a flirt.
And now it only aches,
Cause she's with other guys,
When I'm talking to her,
I think she's telling lies.
She'll post on her story,
Saying that she needs help,
I respond, I worry,
And then she just says, "Welp,",
"Not the guy I wanted",
"To respond to my cry",
The ***** had just flaunted,
And after that, she lied,
Cause what I said she said,
She only said in her mind,
What she actually said was,
"I really don't want to cry",
All over my friends,
And then she said goodbye,
I hate it when she tends,
To always ******* lie.
Please just tell me the truth,
When you don't want to see me,
That's all.
No more rhythm or rhyme.
Just the truth.
Finally told her how I felt about her and now I'm questioning if it was the right idea or not.

Saying i love you
Was the biggest lie
Ive heard

There was a day

Yes, we all imagine we remember that day, but

now it is as if it never

really-- every y must be just if ied or it is never
a requirement

it is a re less
quirement

not every story has been pointedly
taken as granted,
even, oddly,
once
Quire a quest is a matter of motion,
hear, and there, time and all that,

Now, next has never, as in non-realized as realizable

up to now.
told ere un. That may, is. law, an untold tale is never twisted.

between the reversible nand gates of our augmented imaginations.

once,
upon a time lonagone, which were common (or come on)
signals scrambled at this depth, but pressure proves

the point. We are past all that for now
by reason of why

curiosus curiosus our imaginary guide, once

all the imaginations in the hearts of men were only evil,
continually

Then Noah or some storyteller, or prophet
caught wind of a sweet savour

roasting on a fire tended by Tubalcain's daughter,

Naamah, last named bearer of Cainish flavored genes
never set, epigenetically beyond the woumb

Mito-mom,
she coulda been, some wombed man was,
you know, we all share mito-mom,

science of some sorts can't lie. Take that as truth.
If I could believe it,
I could swallow it,

maybe
you can, too. Oh, the myth we model on matters little,
the boys and shoemakers who sniffed the glue,

they loosed some wild ideas

got all tngled with stories from ever

where in the world
have you been?

You just got outa jail. I'm right. I can smell

well,
near as bad, but it was then, a mere made up monent
meant now to hold a point

pon which a story longer than I have ever told may stand and

be told, the king
s story teller stutters in his sleep.

haha
that.
okeh, this is not pre posed as funny,
merely odd,
one ish in a realm of twos and threes and fives

spinning into etern naughtity, empt un-null-ift possibles.

Naught me less press on, find a vortex, flow,

we are peacemakers stranded upon a time of war, scabs. we heal.
don't pick on my inflexibility in matters

of duty. Leaven has always been the means of re pair ideology.
Quarkish insistence on duality from the ***.

The augmented ones are getting better,
as a choice, they see how good
ever works,
some fix what evil broke, some make new ways around the lava
and
balance, spin, lean, wobble, no place to fall here

we gotcha. Gravity and light, those are givens.
this is life.
make something of everything you ever imagined possible.
then die to see if it works.

But wait. Don't die early. It makes grief, which is
what fills the slough of despond.

We are draining that. Birds that nested there all died,
it's frogs moved to Florida, bugs and molds say they can make it any where

so, we are watering the desert. We grow Panama Red. Who eats roses?

Critters manifested as ideas that never linger but in the miry clay,

Most of those went north.

Deserts served and deserved have I claimed as mine
from horizon to horizon, all I see is mine to see serve and
de-serve, I served and am served and
sometimes
often,
I de serve and see as free as I may imagine

bodys are not bearers of light. There is hope. Right is known,
you know right, and you know good, and you know evil

Spike Jones had the hermit wiseman say,
Do the right...

self-evidently not a clue. we thought he got on at nano nano

Hung himself. Why do they do that? Why display dis paired
re-alification.

It resonates, dead end. turn back, Sylvia Plath warned you.
Don't die without knowing

we, me and you, we are nothing with out you.
This touch of word to meaning,
this is in time, mate, we
made a ripple in
material reality past all limittions of time and space,
in a word or two packed with ancient ideas,
which always spill,

whenever we open them, dust in the wind , a ditty from
some A.M. experience, on the way to now

we sing a song of six pence worth, and settle
with a jug o'rye.

Because  there is no truth here.

Hello and welcome to my lying store.
I have great deals, just come past the door.

First you'll need a convincing smile.
The only cost? Hollow insides for a while.
Throw in one of our "it's alrights"
All you pay are a few sleepless nights.
A large pack of our swell "I'm okays"
Can last you more than a couple of days.

Follow me back— yes I'm talking to you—
And I'll show you a deal you can't say no to:
This set of lies about scrapes on your body,
Such as "klutzy," "funny story," and "dangerous hobby."

Look at all these lies, seemingly cheap,
Until you are broke and collapse in a heap.
Because buyer beware, read that cautionary label
Before you bring your lies back to my table.

These lies will wreck and twist your soul
As you use them in vain to prove that you're whole.
So buyer beware, lies may sell cheap,
But they quickly add up in a price much too steep.

So maybe it's best to move on past my store,
'Cause my lies will warp you 'til you are no more.
How do I know this, a seller of strife?
'Cause I am like you, and lies ruined my life.
I don't know why, but rereading this makes me think of that weird potion seller video on youtube

This is one of my favorite poems that I’ve written so I hope you like it

It's kind of a weird story,
How I got these scars.
The're very special,
You can only see them
If I tell you they are here.
But the scars you think you saw,
The scars you think you pointed out on my body,
Don't exist.
The scars i have,
Are seen when i tell you to see them.
So now they are invisible.
Because no one will ever know.
That i want to be the one to speak her name as mine.
These scars,
Are from not from my knife but from you because i told you to hurt me and it would be better for you, for me, and for everybody.
Maybe you want to take the risk.
And want to see the scars.
I'll show them.
But i warn you.
You will not only see scars,
Lies.
Hate.
Anger.
Deceit.
Delusion.
Deception.
Seduction.­
Fallacy.
Errancy.
Oversight.
Aberrancy.
This can go on for a while.
I'll tell you this.
The one thing i keep in mind.
The one thing you should keep in mind.
Don't know, Don't see, Don't show, Don't feel.
And some more lies.
