The Other Date: Friday, 2nd August 2002 @ 06:44:05 AM AEST Topic: Sad Poetry Contributed By: spaceotter Behind my lovely smile- Lurks an evil in denial. Behind these docile eyes- Lurks a devil full of lies. Beneath my cage of lives- Waits a power yet to rise. Yet, the smile I wear is true, And my eyes they will not wound. The lives I've lived were fate, And in purgatory I wait. For the roads I've walked have changed, From blissfullness to pain. And the words I've spoke have killed, As well with love have filled- The souls of those I've thrilled. This poem is Copyright © spaceotter Important note: ALL POETRY ON THIS SITE IS COPYRIGHT.
