Misleading Masks (Line Message)

by Baby Rainbow   Dec 1, 2013


Hiding behind your misleading masks
you feel secure with anonymity, brave
with the false pretence of your invisibility, but
my slyness is my sword.

Gathering in a secret location
to plot your strategies and plan
your cunning revenge. But,
my silence will be my shield.

Fooled with the knowledge
that you know the rules of the game,
tricked by your components, because
only the strongest will survive.

My slyness is my sword,
my silence shall be my shield,
only the strongest will survive.

    This is also a great poem. In the first stanza it seems like you are saying that this person is hiding behind a mask and he lets his sword do "all the talking". I can see this person as a warrior fighting for honour for their country or a war. No words need to be spoken with this person because they are very sure of themselves. They are a strong fighting and believe they can win. No matter who is with them. Even if they are by themselves. I loved the ending here because it's kinda true in life. You do have to be strong to survive. But since I think this is a warrior: their courage is high and fear is nil. :). Very unique and well written!
