Lies of Man

• Description: Just a poem I wrote randomly on a different site.
  Then I found out Gaia had a place to submit poetry.
  I was like 'Sweet' then I hit submit.
  Rate and Comment, please.
  Oh. I was angry at men in general when I wrote this.
  Nothing personal Male Humans.

Each day they sat
Side by Side
And he would glance over
To try and catch a glimpse of her eyes

This day he sat down
Built up his courage
Prepared to speak
And then she turned to him

And to his surprise she announced,

"Do not speak to me your trickery
Your tales of great triumph
Your stories of strength
Nor your dreams of success

I've heard them before
And I will not be taken in
Try not to enchant me
With the lies of man

I shall ignore your words
Cast away your whispers
Rise above your shouts
And duck below your pleads

Dare you still?
For I will waste no time
In striking out
And fending you off

Like a wizard you chant
Like magic you cast your spells
But I know underneath you are a dragon
Needing to be slain like your brethren

So once more I warn!
Do not burn my ears with your hot breath
Don't dare to stab at my heart with your language
And above all, do not sing to me

With the lies of man."

He turned away
She stared straight ahead
And like always
The ride was one of silence.

That was great. Gotto work on the rhyming though.
