So sick of people and their disguises, Wearing masks to hide who they really are, Perhaps they know the truth, If we saw the real them, we'd run so far. Pretending friendship, love or sympathy, Pretending to be smart when they are not, Pretending indeed, might be all they have, But living with pretenders and masks is rot!! Their words all falsified, Their 'truth' nothing but lies, Their lives so empty and barren, it's true, They live daily under dark forboding skies. I pity them all really, Their existance isn't living at all, They just play on with their charades, And eventually no one will care to catch them if they fall. They are the dark ones, Amassing here on Earth, Sending out filth and lies into the world, No value, no worth. Their camouflage not so good, Their cloaks cannot conceal the real them, They cower, cover and hide their lies, In the hopes of procuring a friend. But the evil will always be spotted, Their lies will shine as a beacon in the night, And those of us with true knowledge in our hearts, Will leave with fear, loathing, distrust and fright. As it should be..... *Our deeds travel with us from afar, and what we have been makes us what we are..* ~Isis~Goddess~~Sovereign of the Spirit~ |

sis. *hugs* i like this. i am adding it to my library. i used to live like that. not letting people see the real me. infact i still do. the real me is my poetry, and the brother that you know. but if you didnt know me you would never know. but just look into my eyes and see my pain, or see the scars on my arms. that is the real me. the broken angel. =( great work sis. *hugs* love ya jesse Once upon a time there was a light in my life, now theres only love in the dark, There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart. |

Wow Isis! I know this person, she was a friend of mine and I knew she's not so great as she seems at first. But I continued to be friends with her coz she didn't have many friends...in fact, no friends at all! And the first opportunity she had, she betrayed my friendship and with people I introduced to her, no less!!! No need to say she isn't my friend anymore... Great poem, really spoke to me! |

Scary poem ISIS because it's so often true. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Yes, a dark facet of life personified well... that mask that veils and hides the true self from the light thereby submerging the self into darkness and gifting one's soul to the black masquerading loathsomely devilish fagin of many a guile and disguise... wonderful work, Isis, Namaste, Sudhir |

Isis, so many people like this, and it does get discouraging sometimes. You give your heart or your friendship, and get back betrayal. Powerful stuff. Sandra |

Its writers like you, Isis, that will go far in life...you have an ability to see people and express it into words that create pictures...when a writer can provoke a thought so powerful, they have a true talent... Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed this poem...not for its pretty devices,but for the meanings it portrays. Don't care what people say Just follow your own way Don't give up and use the chance To return to innocence. -Enigma |

Isis~~So sad, but true. Some people don't don't know how to be true friends. They have turmoil in their lives that blinds them from the real meaning of friendship... So sad for them...Take care of You. ~Sash~ |

Isis, this is exactly on the mark. . . it's so sad when people feel that they have to hide behind something. . . it gets in the way. . . Excellent poem. . . ---------------------------------------------------------- That which gives light must endure burning --Victor Frankl |
