Corrupted Lies
A Crown Cinquain inspired by Dharrsheena Raja Segarran's poem, "Clandestine"
Lies
Corrupted whispers
Causing only pain
Shadows grow, truth evades
Hopeless
*
Hopeless
Stumbling blindly
Toward a light
That quickly fades away
Darkness
*
Darkness
All alone
No guiding light
To lead the way
Lost
*
Lost
In dark
No way out
Falling without a sound
Deception
*
Deception
Only lies
Can be told
By your treacherous lips
Lies

Okay so, this is the first Crown Cinquain I've ever written, and I think it turned out okay. It's not a traditional one, I did the poem by the 1-2-3-4 word scheme as opposed to the syllable count version, but I'll be doing one of those soon.
I was inspired to write this after reading the Crown Cinquain "Clandestine" by Dharrsheena Raja Segarran; it was so amazing, I decided to try one myself!
