Best Overstatement Poems

i thought i could see clearly
clearly was an overstatement

there you were
an intruder in my concealment
leading me astray
insidiously blurring my vision

yet i pursued you without hesitation
uninterested in the warnings
how could i be so careless?

you brainwashed me
fed me lies upon lies
how could i be so stupid?

you made...

Proving a point! An exaggerated ending
I see - I am drawing conclusions
An overstatement! Influential indeed
An extravagant means of spreading viewpoint
Ah! I write - I use it to exclaim
I end my proven thoughts with ability
Drawing attention to the written word
I see - you see ! You...

We've been there, so we understand 
      when love-slain pairs
pledge endless, fearless love to which 
      nothing compares.
And all that brave, romantic 
      exaggeration
that smacks of the lovers' paranoid

Which, is...

Motivation is what I need,
Not this selfish, ugly greed
I need this right this instant
I don't want this arrogance...

Left with this silly regret
I don't believe in fairytales

Left with this silly regret
I don't believe in...

Deor's Lament

(Old English/Anglo-Saxon poem circa the 10th century AD)
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

Weland endured the agony of exile:
an indomitable smith wracked by grief.
He suffered countless sorrows;
indeed, such sorrows were his bosom companions
in that frozen island dungeon
where Nithad fettered him:
so many strong-but-supple sinew-bands
binding the better...

Waiting for the fed's is 
Like waiting on court date
Foot steps get louder so 
I begin to contemplate 
Wondering how i choose
This line of profession to
Start with anyway,a mistake. 

Mistake is a overstatement 
At least in this point of wake
Wondering will I be apprehended 
Dead...

Love at first sight is an overstatement,
But I felt it strongly and now my heart's itching.
Don't look at me, I can feel your judgement.
But my heart, it beats a hundred thousand times faster,
And my emotions been in a roller coaster.

That's what you made me feel...

But, I'm pretty regretful for the abominable sins that I've done
Sometimes, I wish that all my sins and faults would be gone

Really fatigued
Not very intrigued
The...

Makes our hearts rock
That it’s the emotional force moving...

Glib rhetoric concerned with  striking independence may seem frivolous,
nuanced rational quite often a typical traumatic casualty,
the once interminable interdependent passionate zeal disintegrating in rapid spasms,
a longing sated and mutually embraced by two compatible persons now collapsed,
indivisibility transformed or transforming into invisibility and the direction...

I see, I feel chose up, Natural soul mine atoms mold
Compulsive make up looked upon, so
I see Seismic waves micro-
I feel High pressures temperatures carbon atoms
Of coal matters at very high pressures and temperatures,

Fountains sprinkle summer city rising steam spiral, 
wet dispersed and raucous shrieks from children,
pavements, streets. lanes, byways imbued,
with that June to September jubilance,
jovial spirit goes beyond the urban confines yet included,
the riot of revelry induced by that vim incited by this season,
those are season smart...
