Best Perfidy Poems

Perfidy

A hollow laugh reverberates
Through the empty chambers
Of a lonely heart

Love's labours lost.
Stolen. Thrown away.
The echo continues.....

To penetrate through
To the very soul
And render it bare

Yet still. Yet still

Roll down the cheeks
Of the harlequin
Standing stolidly on the courtroom floor.

Providing those all...

I see perfidy to the fidelity which is replete of your treachery 
Too bad we ain’t cool, because for you was a melody 
About the despicable ingredients that thrive back then
To create aspersions for my heart to grow fat in

gripping the shards of memories
ignoring the bloodied emotions
why do we torture ourselves 
with that which we cannot change
 
these evocations
vivid
disturbing
invisible to others
but our élan spotlit

Envy the wise that knows you’re false with ease,
Pity the fool that finds their love in you.

When we first met you told a lie to me
You won...

The egoist is insignificant
Dubiousness is a child’s play
And ‘tis not what’s in the belly that kills.

Absence is only a mere event
Even the eyes betray the body.

Perception is just a...

When shadows fall across the land
And darkness sweeps the light away
Shall I give those who lead a hand,
Those who hastened democracy’s fray,
Who trafficked in selfish pursuits
Lusted for power at our nation’s expense?
I shall never speak kindly of sycophants
Who for their folly pay no recompense,
Who bought...

In the garden of time, 
there blossoms a flower which is draped like a bride all in white.
Amidst the prismatic shimmer of the field, 
this flower is the unchaste Dianna.

it betrays the human that gives it a glance.
