Freewill VS Artist

 

I look at him seeing everything that I am

 

My Mirror

 

All the good that I am, he is

 

All the Evil that I could possible imagine, he is

 

How do you love somebody like that, like us?

 

I know all his lies before they are even spoken, because I am him

 

People like us don’t deserve to be loved, we shouldn’t have that choice

 

We deserve the faith we have been doomed with

 

To constantly look over our shoulder wondering

 

See we are perfect, at least that’s what we want you to think

 

Life manipulators, we can get any result we want

 

You’re already losing a game you didn’t know you were playing

 

When you with us you think that you couldn’t get any better

 

Like god must have blessed you with somebody who finally gets you

 

But truth be told we probably don’t care

 

Everything that comes out our mouth is gold

 

Free will is the name of the game and we control it

 

Yes you have options but we already know the answers

 

You may think that you are making the decisions but I’ve counter acted anything you could say in my head

 

Before you speak I’ve went through this completely, by now I know exactly how you think

 

I take and twist the words into my own desires, a master of words and emotions

 

You call it love but we call it art

 

We are not Liars, we do not sell you a dream but we don’t exactly discourage your dreams

 

Placing thought that you never had before us inside your head without doing surgery

 

That’s beauty at its best, to have someone feel exactly what you want them to

 

We’re so good at this sometimes we don’t know it’s happening until it’s too late

 

We believe our own visions, all that we created

 

How ironic we’re hopeless romantics who’ll never love like we want

 

We deserve this faith we’ve gained

 

The life of the creative to make people feel is our job

 

And that is what were in love with not the people we’re giving feelings too

LOVED the ending line, I

LOVED the ending line, I don't think I have ever really been able to put words to why I date so much, but you hit the hammer on the nail!

 

I feel like there is a micro poem inside this poem, if you combine my fav lines...

 

I know all his lies before they are even spoken,

That’s beauty at its best, to have someone feel exactly what you want them to

It is the

 strength of your emotion that is in this poem, and the way you walk the reader through, step by step. Through your yearnings with the use of vocabularies that are very accessible to every reader. It has shown the heart of a hopeless romantic and thus this the way of the artist, that is why you are eternal.

Peace

Dylan
