Andrea Dietrich Poet Sonnet

Beautiful Lies

Because of eyes as warm as honey, I
was melting, but the love I first believed
was shown me in his gaze was but a lie.
He uttered not a word; I was deceived!

He leaned in for that first romantic kiss.
I melted more;  my heart did somersaults.
How easily that man could bring me bliss.
But I would learn his luscious lips were false!

His gorgeous body, hard, pressed into me.
I felt his fingers softly touch my skin.
I totally dissolved! How cleverly
he’d worked unspoken lies on me again!

That young man with his beautiful brown eyes
at last destroyed me with beautiful lies.

Demetrios Trifiatis January 4, 2013 at 2:59 AM We all have been victims of CUPID, this winged-tyrant of our hearts. He leaves us something though: The moment we believed in and the poems we write afterwards. Wonderful suffering that the sweet arrows of CUPID had in store for us. Marvelous poem! Thank you.

Francine Roberts December 19, 2012 at 10:58 AM mine was a blue-eyed liar. great entry for the contest Andrea. ( Honey is working out fine, she still has trust issues , but she very rarely hisses or bites anymore, only if you make a sudden move that scares her a lot)
