There is no hate
In this world of glass
Only silence
Fading, crying

And we’re just faceless
Fools; falling and trying to
Fly with tattered wings

There is no love
For our leering masks
Only whispers
Mocking, lying

And we’re just broken
Mannequins; dancing, dying
On bloody strings

I tried to plead
But they stole my voice
I tried to love
But they took my heart
I tried to fly
But they broke my wings

Welcome to Passions in Poetry. I really don't understand your poem and the correlation to the title of it. But then what do I know?

I do believe that lonliness and lack of faith are indeed tuned to the vibes of Lucifer.  I hope those will listen to another song

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Dream, this sounds so very sad, sweet friend, I think we all feel hopeless time to time and when we are young and are unfamiliar with His love we tend to be tangled in Lucifer's desires, but once we see the Light all of the darkness is undoed and we shall be free as the Truth! (sad sigh) I send angel hugs of strength your way, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Dream, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Great imagery, gave a vivid picture to me.  I think I understand what you are talking about, or at least I received a very clear picture as to what I think it is about.  All of my poems have a somewhat similar underlying message to them, the one thing about the world that I think, if changed, could make amazing difference.  Thank you.

Welcome!!! I can tell that you are one who chooses your words carefully
when you write and this adds to the intensity of your poetry. Very intense and emotional
writing accomplished here in a very short space. I think that you have made some very
good points about Lucifer and his world. A world of self, self gratification, lies, deceit and
heartless bondage. Very well described here, I believe. I thought your explanation that we
are like Mannequins to be very descriptive of how it is and/or must be to be under the
powers of Lucifer. Again, very good and descriptive writing and a Great Big Welcome to
Passions and Spiritual Journeys from me.

Hi Dream,

Well, your poem seems to acknowledge the dark side. Which is real and intrusive. But the poem also is flavored by the most powerful, that of which is love in the universe. The poem also suggests that, although knowing of the such (darkness). Our faith is what is needed for true guidance and salvation from the trap which lingers.

Your thought intentions are very deep. I call this bravery as long as one doesn't lose the real perspective involved.
Because of this you are capable of producing a lot of magic.

Thanks for the compliments,all.However,I think that most of you have misinterprated this poem...it's meant to be a piece that is written from Lucifer Morningstar's point of view.(And no,I'm not a christian, in case any of you were wondering.)Your feedback is very much appreciated,though.Perhaps I'll do something about the poem's ambiguity...
