Death Is a Liar

My name is “C”, Don’t say it out loud. If you label me, You reveal me. I will deny I exist. I hide. I have power, I change your life, I kill… And all those you love. I touch their lives, With, evil and unclean hands… I take hope away, And dash faith to the ground. My name is “C” And the truth is I lie. That is the real source, of my deceit. That is how I win. Listen to my song.

Hello Ann, I know "C" too!! A very intense and powerful verse you've written here. Excellent Work!! And, also, Welcome to Soup!! I haven't been posting any new poetry since the beginning of this year, as I have been right in the middle of preparing my second book of poetry for publication. I look forward to reading more of your poetry. Cheers and Best, Gary (P.S. Thanks for your "Follow" too of my poetry. I shall follow your poetry too!!)

I know you C, and I despise you, for you have hurt so many, and you do not discriminate. Taking even babies. Well done, Ann. Welcome to Soup!

Sad... so many know C... We need to hold fast against the line and pray. Thank you for your kind words.
