Of Lies And Deaths Comments
They have conspired
To annihilate me
Make me vanish
Without a trace.

This poem speaks of the anguished cry of humanity from times immemorial. The tragedy is that it will never cease, for incurable is the wickedness of man, despite all the crucifixions and poisonings he has indulged in time and again. (10)
That tore into my heart! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
Oh! what a deep impression this poem produced upon me! It was as I felt forgiveness and resurrection! It becomes more strong thanks to the detailed description of murder. Oh that is what I always miss in Shakespear! There are death, murders, eveil but no LIGHT in the end. You surpassed Shakespeare in shining!
What a splendid piece! This one has made my day. Almost everyone has suffered some form of betrayal in life, often at the hands of people closest to us. The way you have dealt with the theme of betrayal is absolutely praise-worthy. It's as if the reader has travelled through times and found the curse of betrayal in every age. There's always a Judas in every age n in every place. I agree with Susan that this poem has a strong emotional impact n jolts the reader. The poet is speaking on behalf of whole humanity here. A perfect 10 for this poem.
Hi Nosheen, Thank you very much for the deep study of the poem. I appreciate your time spent on reading the poem and offering the detailed study. True, betrayal from a person close to you is the hardest to bear. Only a person who has gone through the times can fathom the agony. As you would appreciate Nosheen, betrayal has a history dating back to the days of Cain and Abel. It is a natural human tendency.
I am utterly intrigued by this piece. It is powerful, it carries a huge emotional impact but there is even a larger philosophical impact. This poem will not allow the reader to wander off and not ponder its words.10 +++++++++++++++++++++++++
Hi Susan Thank you for reading the poem and offering the comments. It is a pleasure for the writer to know that the write has connected with the reader. Thank you.

The heart screams with this poem. Every word is a cry to rattle the soul. But I like to touch of light streaming in final words.
