In this world what do I see
Faces staring back at me
On a wall or in a tree
Faces staring back at me
Haunting spirits they seem to be
Faces staring back at me
I can not run I can not flee
Faces staring back at me
Why is it that I always see
Faces staring back at me
Will they ever set me free
Faces staring back at me
They've got me writing poetry
Faces staring back at me
How come they can't just heed my plea
Faces staring back at me
Because in my mind they call to thee
Faces staring back at me
Insane I am that's why I see
Faces staring back at me
God why won't they let me be
Faces staring back at me
No longer do I wish to see
Faces staring back at me
In my mind there will always be
Faces staring back at me
Look real close perhaps you'll see
Faces staring back at thee

I liked the form of this.  You really get the affect of the poem with the continuous line "faces starring back at me"

Bravo!  You sure are pumping them out my friend and they are all wonderful each and every one!! Could you please send me the Amour poem you were referring to?  I looked in op5 couldn't find it. Thanks

Thank you all, I'm glad you liked my little jaunt into insanity. The fact of the matter is, I really do see faces in just about everything I look at. I can't explain it, I just do. That's why I wrote this piece. Maybe I have lost my mind, who knows. Thanks again.

P.S.  Every face tells a story I thought I should add
