Evil Within

by LameOANDSuperDork   Jul 29, 2009


I am the evil you failed to be.
The demon inside you'll never see.

I am the filth you wash away.
But this dirt will return another day.

I am the truth when justice is blind.
The voice that's always in the back of your mind.

I am the face when you close your eyes.
With a tongue so tainted, it's covered in lies.

I am the hate you fail to feel.
The anger so strong it can't be real.

I am the stranger in your very own skin.
And I'll tell you a secret... I always win.

    "I am the evil you failed to be" && "With a tongue so tainted it's covered with lies"

    I am the evil you failed to be.
    *I like how you said 'failed". Most people don't strive to be evil. Nice start hun.*

    I am the filth you wash away.
    But this dirt will return another day.
    *I liked this part. Very vivid. one thing I would change is the second line. I would say, "But this dirt will return every single day" That seems more haunting, like no matter what this person will always be dirty.*

    With a tongue so tainted, it's covered in lies.
    *Wow..love this lne. Flawless ^.^ *

    I am the stranger in your very own skin.
    And I'll tell you a secret... I always win.
    *Creppy ending Nic. I liked this. It wasnt your best but still a good write. I think you are playing it safe. I would like to see you write a love poem or do a free verse poem. You have an amazing talent, don't confine it by sticking to one thing. I used to do that, now I'm branching out and my poems are getting better. Keep it up hun. Much love. Nik*
