Two Faced Stranger

by Lonely Little Dreamer   Aug 22, 2007


A puppet master with strings made of words,
You put on the greatest show of them all.
Blinding the world left and right,
Dazzling me with that crooked smile.

Painting a picture with colors of deceit,
I fall helplessly into your work of art.
You knew what words to use on me,
Playing with all my hopes and dreams.

Speaking words of love and adoration,
Singing a song that hypnotizes my soul.
Once I am caught in your web of music,
You break me like a string on that beat up guitar.

Unfortunately you're the fool in this little play.
Full of flaws; you're just a fake.
Alone you will remain upon center stage,
Continually playing your two faced masquerade.

    I loved the idea for this poem and the metaphores were wonderful very unique not anywhere close to some of the other bland metahores that I've read on this site before. The things that I can say that would make this poem a bit better would be if you fixed the last line. For some reason I belive that it doesnt fit as well. I think that its because a mascuarade is a masked ball not something that can be played, and I know that its a metaphore but it just sort of throw the whole poem off. Nice job as a whole though.

    I love this.
    The thing that struck me the most is how creative and unique it is. It's certainly not like any other poem I've ever seen. && Your vocabulary is just flawless, it truly is. Wonderful job. :]] 5.5
