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

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...

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

Another dark warm day with an heavy atmosphere/Humid
Not into dark days and my washing machine is noisily killing me, 
Coffee the life hike up

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...

I found out that God's mercy is bigger than our own
I figured out that God's spirit makes us feel not alone
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

But my heart beats a hundred thousand times faster
And my emotions been in a roller coaster.

That's what you made me...

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

Compulsive make up looked upon, so

Of coal matters at very high pressures and temperatures,

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...
