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
creativity
that is what were in love with not the people we’re giving feelings too
Thanks for the share
Much Love

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
