From Reddit; 'A Senseless Lie'

Where oh Where?

I searched through all of Winterspring
And I checked the Barrens twice
I asked in general chat
I even asked mankriks wife
I looked in Elwynn Forest
I searched in Theramore
I asked in Orgrimmar
And I looked in Molten Core
I took a boat to Northrend
And checked in Valliance
I interrogated Horde
And pestered the Alliance
I looked in Dalaran
And behind the Wrath Gate
I went back to Goldshire Tavern
Where we had our last date
I asked the dueling lowbies
And terrorised the twinks
I visited Shattrath City
To see what Ad'al thinks
I asked in Lower City
Where a troll sold me some soap
And I looked in Honor Hold
And left with little hope
But my search ended at last
I found her outside the wall
She turned and waved at me
When she heard me call
I couldn't help but cheer
I'd thought we'd never meet
Then along came the Fel Reaver
And she was crushed beneath his feet

The Web

lured by lies
he's led astray
amidst untruth
he lost his way
followed falsehoods
he believed
so naive
to be decieved
led astray
by the lie
into the web
stumbles the fly

Wordsmith

My eyes are sore
My feet are tired
But I have been
Inspired
Falling asleep
But I must fight
To stay awake
To write

I tell a story
Short or long
In words of prose
In rhyme, in song

I have a dream
And I must spread
The story told
Inside my head
I have to write
They must be read

I'm not a hero
I'm not a fighter
I'm not famous
I'm just a writer

Our Sky

sun set
in the night sky
star light
reflected in your eye
a simple smile
made me melt
the strangest feeling
I've ever felt
in your arms
with the moon above
that was the moment
I fell in love

a pretty face
intense eyes
somewhat naive
but oh so wise
a passionate spirit
a tender kiss
this is the girl
I fell in love with

a broken heart
I read your letter
my friends keep saying
it'll get better
one day
I'll move on
but I know
that they're wrong
you needed some
time apart
but you never went far
from my heart

in the night
beneath our stars
the moon shone down
on two crashed cars
to ID your body
they searched your coat
all they found
was your note
"I miss you baby
I'll come home soon
We'll reunite
beneath our moon"

I wish you had just left me
I wish you'd stayed away
Then maybe you
would be alive today
I sit at your graveside
I can't help but cry
I know you're dead
but my love won't die
the sun sets
in our night sky

One Last Lie

one last lie
for old times sake
one last promise
for us to break
one last lie
one last mistake

one last fight
after one last try
one last kiss
to say goodbye
I say I hate you
one last lie

Goodbye Gryphon

Goodbye Gryphon
You served me well
Flying over Zangramarsh
And the fires of Hell
It's just a pity
That your feathers smell
Of Dwarves

Oh stop crying
For pity's sake
I'm replacing you
With a Netherdrake

Darling Parasite

You're the lie that I can't live without
The falsehood I don't doubt
You're every fear made flesh
And life without you is death

You have your claws in my mind
I can't escape your thrall
I used to think you were everything
But you're nothing at all

Let me go
Free me from my plight
Have mercy
My darling parasite

Blind

You never saw the danger
When you sent me out that door
You never saw the battle
When you sent me out to war
You never saw the wounds
The scars that couldn't heal
You never saw the pain
That I'll always feel

You never saw the signs
Of the hell they put me through
You never saw their sickness
Or everything they do
You never saw the problem
In sending me to their lair
You never saw the truth
Too blind to even care

Haikus are easy
but they don't always make sense

[Adam Jensen]

There once was a man from Nantucket
Who kept all his money in a bucket
He had a daughter named Nan
Who ran off with a man
As for the bucket, Nan took it.

I know a much dirtier version of The Man From Nantucket, but I'm not going to post it here.



I had to do this one in AP English.
