Perfect Picture

by dollwithafrown   Jul 20, 2007


Smiles of elegance, sparkles in the eyes,
All sharing a burden: they're a family of lies.
Each little betrayal is hidden within,
Their hearts of stone, pumping constant sins.

The father is a killer, of the very worst kind:
Preying on any innocent child he can find.
The mother, a mistress, ruined the perfect family,
By seducing someone's husband yet her guilt ran free.

The daughter, 6-years-old, stole all her grandma's rings.
She was an angel with a halo, but she's thrown away her wings.
The son, he is a monster, the devil in disguise,
Just look straight at him, you will see it in his eyes.

This picture may look perfect, but do not believe;
It's very easy when you look, to be deceived.
They're a family of evilness, a deadly disgrace,
Full of fury and malice, they fell from grace.

    Wow... that was... dark. That last line was a little odd because 'disgrace' and 'grace' both have 'grace' in them so it sounds right but when I read it, it looks wrong. But whatever. It was alright, not amazing, but I still give it a 5/5

    Great poem! I have one suggestion....tell us what the brother's sin is. You said what the father does, the mother does, and the daughter does, but you basically just say the boy is the devil but you don't tell us why....but i mean it's really good flow and rhyme and definitely dark! Great write!
