Best Untrue Poems
The crowd is untrue,
Thus the need to stand aloof,
...Honestly be friends
With an honest few, is right.
Aye, the key to the victory.
Cower not under
The impulse of consumerism,
Since you aren't a beast.
Thus, to set things as always,
Means giving the best in you.

My beat heart beats
Like a ticking time bomb
Ready to deplete
Ready to compete
With all the other
lonely hearts club bands
To try to withstand
All the pressurized unintelligent formal
Untrue truths that measure my informal being among this simplicit surface I stand upon
The pitter patter of my irregular heart
Sounds like taps when death finally does us part

Untrue Love free me from your chains
I refused to be locked away
Walking down death row
For a crime I did not commit
My last meal I refuse to submit
You planted my prints
On a weapon of a tragic Love
Of my innocence
I insist
My plea unchanged
It must be proven I was framed
Coerced
For what was not my first
Attempt
I'll drop a dime
I did let him in
With his alluring Scent
Sense of words to please
His hat drenched in candy rain
Pierced within the wrapper
Since that day
Things have never been the same
Untrue Love

I THOUGHT WE HAD SOMETHING THAT WAS SPECIAL I THOUGHT THAT YOU
AND I WERE UNBREAKABLE.
NOW THAT I SEE THAT YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A SNAKE.
I AM WALKING AWAY FROM THIS BECAUSE IT IS MORE THAN I CAN TAKE.
THE EVIL IS BAKED ON YOUR FACE LIKE ICING ON A CAKE.
THE ENVY OF JEALOUS LURKS FROM YOUR SOUL.
TRY TO GRASP MY SPIRIT AND TAKE ME HOSTAGE.
YOU SHOW YOUR TRUE COLORS TO ME.
THE UGLINESS OF YOUR HEART HAS BEEN REVEALED AND I CANNOT
ASSOCIATE MYSELF WITH YOU.
I HAVE STUCK BY YOU THROUGH THICK AND THIN I WAS TRUE TO YOU.
I HAVE BEEN THERE FOR YOU WHEN YOU HAD NOTHING BUT YOU FAILED TO
APPRECIATE IT.
YOU FAILED TO BE THE PERSON YOU CLAIMED TO BE.
NOW I MUST PART WAYS WITH YOU GOODBYE!

Being wise yet so untrue
Love and chase the love in you
Someday life’s forming wrinkles
Will teach you how to test twinkles
A beam if not of a star
Can make you flee so far
Doctrines and doctrines; dare to stare
Into the eyes of who is fair
Being aware of what is true
Love and face the love in you
Face intuition and follow it
Be your dreams and never sit

I sit at home alone
Waiting by the telephone
Hoping to hear her tender tone
But all the time I knew
It was fruitless to pursue
The fickle heart of Sue
I’ll spend no more nights alone
Waiting for Sue to phone
I’m better off on my own
So let me warn you about sue
Before she gets her hooks in you
Her love is definitely untrue
For as soon as you’re apart
The infidelity will start
For she has a cheating heart

A lie is worse than a curse
A lie is a bad or false rumor on steroid
A lie can hurt countless innocents
A lie can cause unnecessary wars
A lie can destroy human lives
A lie is like a deadly disease or cancer
A like can spread like wildfire on social media
A lie can easily go viral. A lie is contagious
A lie can send the wrong person to jail
A lie can never be recanted or retracted
A lie can easily fool an uneducated voter
That’s why I will never vote for a criminal or a liar
A lie leaves an indelible or permanent stain
Regardless of the apologies
Too little, too late
Immigrants do not eat pets
A lie is like genie out of the bottle
Once genie is out, that’s it
The damage is done and beyond repair
One can never have the good reputation back
It is extremely hard to fully recover
As it is impossible or unimaginable to have a second birth
Racist lies are very bad, deadly and inhumane
A liar will do anything to win or avoid losing
A liar is the scum of the earth
It’s inconceivable for an educated person
To follow a criminal or to vote for one
Our world is in a sorry and incredible state
A lie is a curse going in the wrong direction
Hell is on earth. May God have pity on us!
Infernus in terra. Deus misereatur nostril!
May the Lord smile on us and forgive our sins!

You say you love me, but your love's untrue
I do not feel it in the things you do
and when you say it, coupled with a "kiss"
the searing heat of passion's what I miss
You say you love me, but I am alone
Such loneliness to you might be unknown,
and even when you're near, you're far away.
I cannot reach your heart with what I say.
You say you love me, but your eyes tell lies
I see a look that does not idolize
The windows to your soul are curtained now
I cannot see inside; I don't know how.
You say you love me, but your arms deny
to comfort and caress me when I cry
At times when storms let lose torrents of pain,
a shelter in your love I cannot gain.
You say you love me, but it can't be real
A lukewarm sentiment is all you feel
For love's inferno licks with flames so hot
I tell you now, all this your love is not
I want a love that sweeps my heart away
that makes me crave your presence night and day
I want a love that loves the worst in me
A love that binds my soul though body's free
I want a love that melts in its embrace
that testifies its presence in a face
I want a love as fierce warrior's will
A love that quiets fear, makes madness still
I want a love that all my thoughts consumes
A love that dreams in buried heart exhumes
I want, I crave, I covet love that feeds
That satiates my soul, fulfills my needs
You promised me a love that lasts all time
A love like that you have, but it's not mine
I get the crumbs while others get the feast
For lack of such a love my heart's deceased.

Rhyme
the dialogue and the time have flowed,
then the night came and rolled over the pavement
with opening its huge and dark wings
embracing armful fallen leaves in her breast,
and goes leaving a romantic whistle behind
the two hearts, smaller and larger, those have swallowed dialogue
though come together, the four suspicious eyes were going
to different directions with their own hardened thoughts
for the truth from the untruth
the taste being bitterer and more unbearable,
and for distressing perjury, the moment was much too long
the groundless tales that lain yonder the thickened wall
were spreads before in vision broadly
and empty hearts, which hearts do not know, even that is
the real desire; yet, desiring to have the things that are worthless
and unable to get, were going far away without destination
oh, what a miserable moment it is? as time goes by
the day called tomorrow will certainly visit again
and for awkward to look bright sun the perjury
again to be repeated for it became an obstinate habit
after all; when in alone and not one eye stares at,
toss around the floor holding the deep scar in heart
and cry out loudly
and run after wretched untrue truth
for perjury leaves these agony and pain
in the disfigured heart

HISTORY IS UNTRUE
Columbus discovering America? Yeah? Who says?
Only after a small army of Vikings from overseas
Traded and raided on the coasts for centuries;
And Brendan had navigated from Ireland to the Bronx;
Not to mention precolumbian wrecks of Chinese junks
Found in the sandy bottom of San Diego harbor;
And the Mongoloid footsloggers who tiptoed south to Ann Arbor
Across the floes of the Bering Strait a millennium before.

I am constantly searching
for that love different from old loves,
starting over and hoping it can last
without the urge to seek and find!
It has been quite a few years
spent in dire loneliness, giving up on dreams...
laying down and staring at moonlight:
dreaming of passionate nights that faded away,
never to be recaptured by memory!
Oh, fate so unfair and merciless:
don't hold me in captivity! Let me
escape to yesterday and relive each joyful
moment I lost to foolishness and greed...
is this why you punish me so harshly?
Before bright morning comes,
create that image of illusion
with wisps of fog rising from the warm grass;
there we lay and dreamt of a happy tomorrow!
If what's left of these lonely days
could render me one wish: to have that old love back...
rather than seek out new loves so brief and untrue;
wouldn't I be happier than the luckiest man?

The eyes that never shed tears
And a heart that never trembled;
The mind that never knew fears
And a man that never fumbled;
If there is any—or that ever was,—
I really doubt it is the least true!
The tongue that never told lies
And a saint that never repented;
The love that never failed twice
And a spirit that never fainted;
If there is any—or that ever was,—
I am very sure they are but few!
The life that never missed road
And a hope that never wandered;
The faith that never waxed cold
And a soul that never wondered;
If there is any—or that ever was,—
I still doubt if it could be so true!

You play with my emotions
Make fuchsia fun of my devotion
You only teal take never give
Your love is fake not true or real
At first you were attentive
Love bombing not defensive
You slowly grew like a black sin
A snake coming out it’s skin
You want me to stay close
So you can swallow me whole
Your lies are like liquid gold
Shiny and full of false hope
Life is to short to live somber sad
In tomb with green groom gone mad
For your heart is dark and untrue
We must part I’m leaving blue you

To either family The Land is God’s Gift:
A Divine Portion plus Trophy to lift,
All trespassers to quit making it swift,
Another day to never towards it drift …
A Land The Talk of legal documents gone through
And newspapers armed with Truths mixed with The Untrue;
An entry into the tussle of a busy-body spend-thrift
Making it a plot about which death should be sniffed
And from which one could Man’s folly rift.
But they’re two uncaring families
Impatient for The Bitterest Rift
And for same cancelling their homilies
And appearances for Talks briefed …
Two family disputants over prized land
Not wanting to hear that it is mere sand.
