Abstract
Poetry is the works of symbol, code, words and language to arouse a writer’s spirits and thoughts, while a poem is the organization of these verses. In this research study, the writer chooses to analyze the figurative languages found in Moonsun’s “Don‟t Lie to Me” using structuralism linguistics theory developed by Saussure as a new criticism approach. This study focuses on: (1) to categorize the figurative languages found in the poem, (2) to explain how structuralism linguistics is applied to analyze figurative languages found in the poem, and (3) To describe the message that can be concluded from the figurative analysis in the poem “Don’t Lie to Me”. The results of data are: (1) There are eight kinds of figurative language found in the poem titled “Don't Lie to Me” by Moonsun, they are: simile, personification, apostrophes, hyperbole, symbol, euphemism, symploce and synecdoche. For example: (a) Simile is found in the first stanza at first line „like a splinter in my soul‟. The line has the word like which indicates associations, to describe what the speaker feels about the crack and fracture she feels in her inner soul. (b) Personification is found in the first stanza at second line „let my mind come to a rest’ to describe the fatigue that she feel inside her mind because of the many emotions that constantly bugging her.
