Curiousity, and wonder

Based of:
'Product-Prometheus'
A dawning done by Mr. Mark James Hiblen

Misunderstood Man.

Lonely is the heart,
Of he who is misunderstood,
Branded by the people,
He fears the silence.

Yet kind is the face,
They look upon with scorn,
Not seeing past the lines and scars,
To the tender soul with in.

Gentle and reclusive,
The smile faintly hides,
Beneath the soft eyes,
So compassionate and benign.

Etched into his very flesh,
Are the lines of his making,
Proof of his created form.
Gifted with his own compassion,

The lonely man,
Misunderstood,
Walks equal in darkness,
As in light.

Words have power, Im going to unleash the power of my soul.

"Lonely is the heart,

Branded by the people,
He fears the silence.

The lonely man,
Misunderstood,
Walks equal in darkness,
As in light."

I find this to be the core of your poem. I like these stanzas, they just stick out to me.

i'm really feeling this poem bigtime.  so much inside a man of this kind, like a kaleidoscope changing so fast he cannot grasp words for any of it, at least to portray in facial expressions what lies deep beneath.

this is me.  thanks my friend.
