I see you there - but not really. I see an image made for the benefit of others. Why the charade? But without the image, I never would have met you. You tell me who you really are - but not really. I can't know the truth, but then again, Why would you lie? You are a mystery to me, and I enjoy it. You shared your biggest secrets with me - but not really. Images on a flat screen cannot convey emotion. What can we do? I would love to meet the real you. For now, we are just images - but not really. For I know you, And you know me. I won't hide. Why should I? I never want to feel I've misled you. Not really. Why is it that we prepare for war like precocious giants, and for peace like retarded pygmies..... |

Wow Baroni, I like your style! Forceful truths, but then the fear of yourself being to forceful... Shows the insecurities in all of us as we get to know new people..... I really enjoyed this portrayl.. Isis *The greatest warrior is one that does not need to fight* ~Isis~ |

"Images on a flat screen cannot convey emotion" oh yes, i love your format too- very original. i can tell you put sum thought in the construction of it while you were writing. i think it suited the poem very well-good job baroni! i loved the way you ended the poem with the "not really" i think you finished it it off well- not many ppl are able to deliver good endings, but i think that you managed to do a good job of it .thanks for sharing this- i loved the read see the glass crack like a flower opening |
