Gem

by Something Diabolical   Aug 3, 2015


A gleam in your eye only I can see
Why is it always me?
They all adore you loved and cherished
Leaving behind all who have perished

Beauty to all who look but not I
I see through the lies
Your face behind the mask concealed
The truth of its poison finally revealed

"A being of beauty, a persona of Gold"
Acquaintances are told
"The brightest Gem for all to gaze"
All of the people singing your praise

Your heart is torn, twisted and cruel
I am not a fool
My eyes are different, my sword is true
Never have I seen a demon like you

Today I avenge all you cursed and betrayed
Today is the day we begin the Crusade

    I love this one.
    Strong emotions, hatred, anger can be clearly seen and felt. It's true that sometimes the things which are real, are rarely seen, even though they remain infront of our eyes.
    Very well written.

    Love the ending of this. we've all known people who seem to be able to do no wrong in others' eyes but are in fact despicable.
    Good write.
