Best Fault Poems
Fault Is Not In the PoetFingers tremble,
like an alcoholic without a bottle.
His pen is graceful in its slumber,
but imprisoned ink desires to be free -
intoxicated by his poetry.
Lips are forever silent,
in the absence of inspiration.
Isolated in the boredom of blankness -
congested to think enough,
struggling to feel enough.
Fault is not...

Its My FaultI was there for you through
thick and thin
Opened my arms up
to welcome you in
As if I could feel when
you was down and out
Dropped everything for
you without a doubt
Then to be played by you
without any thought
When you led me...

Embracing Fault: a Love's RedemptionIn the depths of my own fault, I find,
A longing to mend what's left behind,
No blame to cast upon your name,
For in my own mirror, I see my shame.
With pleading eyes, I seek your gaze,
Yet you turn away, lost in a haze,
If only you could...

It's All My FaultIt's all my fault, you see,
I'm the one who did this to me
I say "I love you" when I don't
Promise to do things when I know I won't
Everything I love, I throw away
And then as I wander astray
I never even stop to
Find my...

Your FaultIt hurts so much when we look to each other
and you don’t look the same way
It hurts so much when we talk to each other
and you end our conversation
It hurts when I hear you laughing
with a second voice which isn’t...

The Fault LineThe fault line streamed from the Nazi state,
The Jewish Shoah, Holocaustic fate.
Mongolia, Croatia, and Belarus,
Humanity had no excuse.
Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan,
The full scope of terror's sad sway,
In Cambodia they pointed their fingers
To where the horrid 'Killing Fields' lay.
The dire purges in Mother Russia,...

Fault Lines Re-DrawnThere was a great asthenospheric disruption
Followed by parallel volcanic eruptions
There was a great, abrupt tectonic shift
In a moment, a million years of continental drift
The ground shook like a wet dog out of water
Mother earth swatted her sons and daughters
The fault lines re-created all notions...

Fault of ThyselfFault Of Thyself
For every man there is reward.
For every man there are consequences.
Which kind of man are you?
For the brave man, there is honor.
For the cowardice man, there is desertion.
For the stone man, there is isolation.
For the weeping man, there is no shame.
For the...

It's Not Your FaultI know how many tears you have shed
And what kind of life you have led
I know how many disappointments
Have made you sigh
And how many loses have made you cry
I know how hard it is to be rejected
And how sad it is to...

1-800-Not My FaultWhen life's not going right
Guess you could say it's going wrong
Do what it is I always do
Pick up the telephone
Dial my favorite number
They've never steered me wrong
Of course that number is
1-800-Not My Fault
In any situation
At any given time
#1 on my speed dial
Connects me directly to...

Being HumanIn my mind
Where silent thoughts
Reveal the truth, the depths
Of my hopes, dreams and feelings…
There is a piercing voice
One who announces my flaws
The faults which remind me that
I am human and humans err
Sometimes badly
Other times, sadly
And still other times, madly
I am a human and I stumble
Both...

All My FaultsNot all my faults were mine
See, if you follow every line,
Cracked yearly by life's quakes
After every turn she takes
What did not fall apart
Was recycled, to restart,
Not knowing now or then
She'd fractured, yet again
Basking on bone and skin
A wrinkle forms, o, so...
